Radiation dose measurement and environmental surveying during x-ray imaging and fluoroscopy at general hospital in Sulaimania-Kurdistan region-Iraq

In the article the radiation burden measurement technique of the X-ray source in the process of stabilization is described. The possibility of using this technique for the dose rate determination from the pulsed X-ray source is presented. The measurement technique approbation results at the pulsed X-ray source RAP-160-5 using thermoluminescent dosimeters DTL-02 are shown.

The One

A basic prerequisite for in vivo X-ray imaging of the lung is the exact determination of radiation dose. Achieving resolutions of the order of micrometres may become particularly challenging owing to increased dose, which in the worst case can be lethal for the imaged animal model. A framework for linking image quality to radiation dose in order to optimize experimental parameters with respect to dose reduction is presented. The approach may find application for current and future in vivo studies to facilitate proper experiment planning and radiation risk assessment on the one hand and exploit imaging capabilities on the other.
