To investigate the impact of evolving International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) recommendations concerning calculation of effective dose (E) and compare updated typical UK values for common CT examinations with previous data. Monte Carlo simulations have provided normalized organ doses relating to 15 CT scanner models and 5 virtual reference adults. Series of representative E/dose-length product (DLP) coefficients were derived for common examinations on the separate bases of not only older stylized mathematical phantoms and voxel phantoms presently recommended by ICRP, but also the 1977, 1990 and 2007 formulations for E. Updated E/DLP coefficients were applied to typical values of DLP from the 2011 UK survey. Changes in ICRP recommendations that have arisen from improving evidence on stochastic risk, influence values of E by up to a factor two for CT examinations of the head and neck, although differences for the trunk typically amount to ±10%. Adoption of the voxel rather than the mathematical phantoms used previously can lead to further changes in E by a few tens of percent. Updated typical values of E for UK CT examinations range from 2 to 20 mSv. Increases by 20-400% since 2003 arise not only from increases by 30-160% in typical values of DLP, but also increases by 30-90% in relation to E/DLP coefficients for examinations of the trunk. Values of E, including updated typical data for UK CT, should be compared with caution in relation to their purpose and underlying factors concerning their calculation. Updated E/DLP coefficients and typical values of E for UK CT, and an appreciation of factors influencing these data.
