Validation of radiographic automatic exposure control device testing in the era of filmless radiography : and new variables associated with testing

Creator:

Allman, Robert M.

Abstract:

The exposure needed for a clinically useful image requires much less precision when using digital radiography (DR) than when using screen/film (SF) radiography. The Automatic Exposure Control (AEC) device was developed for ensuring accurate and precise exposures with SF technology. This thesis evaluates the importance of the AEC device in...

An analysis of shielding requirements in conjunction with current radiographic imaging practices

Creator:

Mallory, Stacy L.

Abstract:

The National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements Report No. 49, originally issued on September 15, 1976, has been the primary design guide for diagnostic x-ray structural shielding in the United States. To further protect the public from various areas of medical radiation exposure, NCRP issued Report 116 in 1987...
