Description

The unnecessary radiological examinations and their implications referring to medical exposure and benefit against detriment problems represent an important subject of a great part of the literature. The evaluation of these is very important in the ex-communist countries where such publications are almost complexly missing. Our study follows to establish the number of unnecessary examinations in three roentgen diagnostic departments and their contribution to medical exposure. (author)
