Kineradiography

Radiation DoseRepeating the fluoroscopy by reshowing of a film or television image at no additional radiation exposure to the patient is preferable. Sometimes, an important finding is made on the sixth or tenth viewing of the more detailed image of kineradiography. In many cases to accomplish this purpose by conventional fluoroscopy would require repeated doses that would add up to a large radiation exposure to the patient. Because kineradiography allows a more thorough study with a single dose of radiation the total exposure can be drastically reduced.It is well known that increasing the radiation-dose rate during fluoroscopy reduces . . .
