Computed Radiography dose optimization in pediatric patients
Radiation dose reduction in pediatric X-ray imaging is especially important because of children radiation sensitivity. For any radiographic examination performed at a fixed radiographic tube potential, the patient absorbed dose is directly proportional to the value of milliampere-seconds (mAs) selected by the operator. Nevertheless, reducing X-ray exposure has the unavoidable disadvantage of in...
متن کاملEntrance skin dose assessment of selected computed radiography facilities in Ghana
Background: The basic challenge with computed radiography (CR) systems is the large dynamic range which provides an opportunity for radiographers to gradually increase exposure factors and still produce good image quality, a practice that can lead to dose creep. Materials and Methods: The aim of this study was to establish the entrance skin dose (ESD) values for nine selected examinations in t...
متن کاملPatient dose management in digital radiography
PURPOSE To present the experience in patient dose management and the development of an online audit tool for digital radiography. MATERIALS AND METHODS Several tools have been developed to extract the information contained in the DICOM header of digital images, collect radiographic parameters, calculate patient entrance doses and other related parameters, and audit image quality. RESULTS Th...
متن کاملBreakthroughs in Radiography: Computed Radiography
CE Email comments/questions to [email protected], fax 800-556-3288, or log on to www.VetLearn.com Computed radiography (CR) is a digital imaging technology and digital x-ray image management system that has been used in human and veterinary medicine since the 1980s. CR helps eliminate many of the disadvantages of traditional radiography. A storage phosphor plate collects the pattern of x...
متن کاملComputed Radiography in Perspective
Introduction Imagine the excitement accompanying the first realization that noninvasive visualization of bones was possible. German physicist Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen was working in a darkened room on November 8, 1895, experimenting with electrical charges flowing through a vacuum tube, when a piece of paper coated with barium platinum cyanide glowed. Coincidentally, it had been left near a card...
