Radiological Protection for Patients (RPOP)
Information to help health professionals achieve safer use of radiation in medicine for the benefit of patients.
Full Description
The website deals with the radiological protection of patients undergoing conventional radiology, digital radiology, paediatric radiology, mammography, and computed tomography. In conventional radiology, the potential for dose reduction while preserving diagnostic information has been clearly demonstrated, and guidance needs to be developed covering the techniques and procedures that would reduce patient exposure.
