Computed Tomography (CT) images taken in cancer treatments are important in treatment portal design
and planning. The dose received by the patient in CT scans are not considered in the treatment planning
dose calculation and becomes important in calculating the limit doses of the critical organs with critical
dose threshold. In this study, the change of the dose received by some of the critical organs, namely the
heart, liver, and kidneys, according to the height of the patient was investigated with the NCICT code
using the Monte Carlo technique. As a result, doses were changed by the height of the patients.
