ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to conduct a technical and clinical evaluation Silicon Photomultiplier (SiPM) integrated digital Positron Emission Tomography – Computed (PETCT) Scanner using National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) NU 2- 2018 standards.MethodsSystem sensitivity measured by NEMA phantom. Scatter fraction, count-rate performance, accuracy count loss, timing resolution were all computed. Clinical images acquired image quality assessed compared with published...
Introduction The quality control (QC) procedures for positron emission tomography (PET) scanners are covered by National Electrical Manufacturers Association and International Electrotechnical Commission. QC must be carried out at regular intervals according to the specifications of scanner manufacturer. Daily weekly plays a valuable role in monitoring performance changes. This study shares operational experience that do not require radioactive Ge-68 source perform daily with...
Contribution of radiation doses from medical X-ray examination to collective dose is significant. Unusually, high may increase the risk stochastic effects radiations. Therefore, assessment was performed in 241 digital examinations study and compared with published reference levels (DRLs).Entrance surface air kerma (ESAK) calculated chest PA, cervical AP/Lat, abdomen AP, lumbar AP/Lat pelvis AP radiographic (119 male 122 female) following International Atomic Energy Agency recommended...
Abstract The application of the kerma-area product (PKA) meter is increased rapidly in dosimetry. This study presents measurements PKA adherence to International Atomic Energy Agency protocol for 300 adult patients digital radiographic procedures. Effective doses (ED) were calculated from and conversion coefficients (E-103/PKA) obtained Commission on radiological protection 103. In skull posteroanterior (PA), lateral (LAT), cervical spine anteroposterior (AP), LAT, chest PA, abdomen AP,...
Purpose: Exposures to medical ionizing radiations elevate the risk of stochastic effects such as cancer in exposed individuals. It is utmost importance monitor radiation doses delivered patients and their optimization reduce associated risks without limiting diagnostic information. Methods: Entrance surface air kerma (ESAK) a total 64 adult digital X- ray examinations were calculated effective estimated per International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). Results: Median ESAK (mGy) obtained skull...
To investigate the current radiographic practices in a public tertiary care teaching hospital digital radiography set-up, study aimed to calculate entrance surface air kerma (ESAK), area product (PKA), and effective doses chest PA, AP examinations. Chest is most common examination performed worldwide. Due frequency of these examinations, its contribution collective dose considerable. Also, various international authorities have recommended guidelines for local surveys radiation protection...
The investigation intended to quantify lumbar lordotic and lumbosacral Angle (LLA) in patients with lower back pain. examination was completed on 54 chronic low pain, a multispecialty hospital India, over period of 6 months for lateral radiographs. angles were measured by Ferguson's technique. age group ranged from 21-65 years the weight range 33 88 kg, height 133 182 cm, BMI 15.2 36.6 (Kg/ m 2 ). mean weight, height, 59.8 159.1 23.7 kg/m2 respectively. overall peak kilovoltage 60 75 kVp....
