Radiation dose in radiography and methods for dose reduction

  • 1. Laboratory of Industrial Hygiene, Beijing (China)

Description

The research contract between the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and Laboratory of Industrial Hygiene (LIH), China, was conducted from 1994 to 1998 and entitled 'Radiation Dose in Diagnostic Radiology and Methods for Dose Reduction', involving some of Asia and Far East countries. The results of the research have demonstrated that significant dose reduction has been achieved without any loss of diagnostic information. The CEC diagnostic reference dose values can be valid for conventional radiography examinations in China. (author)
