Radiation load of patients in the x-ray examination of the lungs
POKORNÁ, Adéla
The goal of this paper was to compare the radiation load of patients on the RTG examination of lungs by different screening methods used at the Radio-diagnostic Clinic of the Faculty Hospital Královské Vinohrady in Prague. The measurement was made using thermo-luminescence dosimeters (TLD) located in the anthromorphous phantom. From the values measured, the effective doses were calculated and the values obtained were compared both to each other, and to the data available in the literature. The results confirmed that the use of the soft method leads to a significant increase of both the surface dose (the dose on the skin), and the effective dose.
