Competency information

Details

Review the outcome of image quality and patient dose measurements in a range of systems and recommend optimisation strategies Assess by simulation or measurement the effect of the optimisation suggested

Considerations

  • National DRL/local DRL procedures and correct application
  • Image quality/patient dose trade-off
  • Effect of exposure parameters on image quality and patient dose
