Research Results Demonstrate how Lower Radiation Doses Can Be Achieved in Diagnostic Imaging of Paediatric Patients

A recent IAEA Coordinated Research Project, Evaluation and Optimization of Paediatric Imaging, has shown that reduced amounts of radiation can be used in paediatric radiology and nuclear medicine exams, and highlighted the necessity of close coordination among medical physicists and radiology and nuclear medicine teams
