Hypothesis: Does a 50% reduction in radiation in dose significantly affect the diagnostic quality of chest CT

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Patients with Lymphoma are recruited and have a follow up CT performed at 50% of the standard exposure parameters. The studies are compared for image quality with a recent (\<3 months) thoracic CT performed at standard exposure parameters.
