Optimization of Radiation Dose Exposition in Medical Imaging via Variation of X-Ray Tube Outputs Parameters

Abstract

This paper's goal is to shield the patient from needless radiation exposure. To do this, a number of observations and actions have been made to establish the physical components, which are based on the standard methodology for X-ray human diagnostic techniques. Initially, the several parts of the X-ray circuit that deal with the X-ray tube is made to change the input voltage from low-voltage AC to high-voltage DC. Next, we discussed the creation of X-rays via the bremsstrahlung process, which is a unique X-ray process. To ensure that patients receive a low dose and the best possible outcomes, both quality and quantity of X-rays are needed. After that, a variety of criteria determine how much radiation is administered to a patient undergoing a medical X-ray. Several X-ray projections have been examined in this work, and the variables influencing radiography have been identified and recorded. In summary, the relationships between the tube voltages (kVp), tube currents (mAs), and exposure times (s) were carefully observed and analyzed. The outcome shows that a high kVp and low mAs are required to provide the lowest radiation exposure.
