Dosimetry in Medical Imaging


Research activities of Medical Physics Department stuff are mainly focused on:
  • Development of methods for the estimation of patient radiation burden from radiological imaging and interventional procedures using
    • physical anthropomorphic phantoms and thermoluminescence dosimetry
    • Monte Carlo simulation software packages
    • Development of methods for the estimation of radiation burden to medical, nurse and technical stuff from fluoroscopically guided interventional procedures.
    • Optimization of exposure parameters in:
      • Radiographic imaging and fluoroscopically guided procedures
      • CT examinations
    • Investigation of geometric efficiency, over-beaming and over-scanning in multi-detector CT systems
