OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this review is to summarize 10 steps a practice can take to
manage radiation exposure in pediatric digital radiography. CONCLUSION. The Image …

Digital radiography (DR) technologies have the advantage of a wide dynamic range
compared to their film‐screen predecessors, however, this poses a potential for increased …

Introduction Digital radiography (DR) systems enable radiographers to reduce the radiation
dose to patients while maintaining optimised image quality. However, concerns still exist …

Abstract Introduction Direct Digital Radiography (DDR) has dramatically impacted medical
imaging by providing fast, high-quality radiographic images. It offers several advantages …

Introduction Radiographers have a duty to ensure that radiation doses to patients are as low
as reasonably achievable. With digital technologies, exposure factors which achieve the …

Objective Sequential posteroanterior chest radiographs (CXRs) on any one patient are
commonly displayed at different sizes on PACS monitors. The purpose of this study was to …

In digital radiography we are now able to electronically collimate images after acquisition.
This may seem convenient in paediatric imaging, but we have to be aware that electronic …

Objective Unnecessary exposure of the abdomen, arms or head may lead to a substantial
increase of the radiation dose in portable chest X-rays on the neonatal intensive care unit …

Objective: To assess the quality of beam collimation during lumbar spine radiography at two
general hospitals in Ahvaz, Iran. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 830 …

Purpose In paediatric imaging, it is common practice to hold children still for an examination
by using immobilisation devices, parents, and/or staff. Historically, there has been a …
