Introduction: Increasing in refer to computed tomography (CT-scan) imaging causes to increase in cumulative dose. Stereoradiography (EOS) is an X-ray imaging technology that, by eliminating scattering radiation, reduces patient's absorption dose and improves image quality.   Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out in a hosp...

High energy X-ray imaging has unique advantage over conventional X-ray imaging, since it enables higher penetration into materials with significantly reduced radiation damage. However, the absorption contrast in high energy region is considerably low due to the reduced X-ray absorption cross section for most materials. Even though the X-ray phase and dark-field imaging techniques can provide su...

background: eos is a 2d/3d muscle skeletal diagnostic imaging system. the device has been developed to produce a high quality 2d, full body radiographs in standing, sitting and squatting positions. three dimensional images can be reconstructed via stereos software. this health technology assessment study aimed to investigate efficacy, effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of new emerged eos imag...

As a nuclear approach, Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a functional imaging technique which is based on the detection of gamma ray pairs emitted by a positron-emitting radionuclide. There are certain limitations to this technique such as normal tissue uptake. Therefore, it has been recommended that patients prepare before scanning. Fasting for a short while before PET imaging is an exampl...

Background Since adolescents do not frequently refer to pediatricians or even general practitioners, hospitals and clinical standard systems are not designed to meet their needs. Therefore, the present study aimed to identify adolescent’s views and feelings of the X-ray imaging process, suggest some age-appropriate facilities to respond t...

Biomedical x-ray imaging has proven to be an indispensable component of many medical diagnostic and treatment techniques. Major technical advances over the years, culminating in helical scanning, multi slice, x-ray computed tomography, can now provide ∼ 0.5 mm resolution 3D images of the spatial distribution of tissue attenuation coefficients of an entire adult human thorax or abdomen. The util...

The use of X-ray image receptors that produce a digital image is becoming increasingly important. Possible benefits include improved dynamic range and detective quantum efficiency, improved detectability for objects of low intrinsic contrast, and reduced radiation dose. The image can be available quickly. The display is separated from the image capture so that processing and contrast adjustment...

We discuss the scientific and technical aspects of high-resolution γ-ray and X-ray imaging of solar flares. The scientific necessity for imaging observations of solar flares and the implications of future observations for the study of solar flare electrons and ions are considered. Performance parameters for a future hard X-ray and γ-ray imager are then summarized. We briefly survey techniques f...
