Minimization Of Entrance Surface Dose And Critical Organ Dose For Medical Radiography Using Optimization Procedures

In hospitals, clinics, nursing homes, and medical laboratories, diagnostic radiography is extensively used to view internal structures of a patient and to aid radiologists and doctors diagnose and treat illness and injury. The most common medical radiography is by passing x-rays through the body...
