Optimization of Bedside Chest X-rays Taken in the Intensive Care Unit by Using Current Software-based Techniques

March 22, 2024 updated by: Marjo Soini, Joint Authority for Päijät-Häme Social and Health Care
This study investigates how to utilize an algorithm-based virtual grid in lung imaging in intensive care unit patients. The aim is to compare the radiation dose caused by imaging with a virtual grid and a traditional grid and relate this to the achieved image quality. The study aims to determine how the radiation dose can be lowered and still obtain the same diagnostic image quality as using a traditional scatter-limiting lattice.
