Dose Optimization in Digital Radiography and Computed Tomography: An Essential Guide

Euclid Seeram, "Dose Optimization in Digital Radiography and Computed Tomography: An Essential Guide"
English | ISBN: 3031228707 | 2023 | 115 pages | PDF | 5 MB

This book addresses radiation protection of patients having digital radiography and computed tomography (CT) examinations. The literature on radiation doses to patients from these two modalities have reported that the doses to patients are high. As a result, the radiology community has focused on methods and procedures to keep these doses as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA) without compromising the diagnostic image quality. This book outlines the motivation for dose optimization in radiology, identifies and describes the ICRP principle of optimization, outlines the factors affecting the dose in digital radiography and in CT, and identifies and describes strategies used in digital radiography and in CT for dose optimization.
