Dose Reduction Techniques
Dose reduction techniques are methods used in medical imaging, like X-rays and CT scans, to lower the amount of radiation exposure to patients. These techniques include adjusting imaging settings, using advanced software, or hardware improvements to produce clear images with less radiation. The goal is to maintain accurate diagnoses while minimizing potential health risks associated with radiation. They are especially important for vulnerable groups, such as children or patients needing multiple scans, ensuring safety without compromising image quality.
