"KILOVOLTAGE RANGE X-RAY CHARACTERISATION AND DIAGNOSTIC APPLICATIONS O" by Nathan Kenneth Thorpe
The use of diagnostic imaging services has been increasing significantly over recent decades as the availability and the sophistication of diagnostic imaging equipment has expanded. This has resulted in improved patient outcome through earlier and more accurate diagnoses at cost of increasing radiation exposure to the general populace. This may result in an increased incidence of radiation-induced conditions and cancer. Monitoring the radiation exposures during these procedures is crucial to preventing ra-diation induced conditions and minimising radiation exposure both to patients and to oper...
