data(fluoro)
A data frame with 19 observations on the following 2 variables.
Time
the total procedure time (in minutes); a numeric vector
Dose
the total radiation dose received (in rads); a numeric vector
The data are given in the Table as the
natural log of Time
and the natural log of Dose
.
Here the data have been transformed back to the original scale.
The source claims the purpose of the data collection was
“to assess whether radiation dose could be estimated
by simply measuring the total ct fluoroscopic procedure time”.
The procedure was performed in the abdomen.
