Notă biografică
Dr Euclid Seeram was formerly the program head of the medical imaging degree at the British Columbia Institute of Technology, where he worked for 38 years serving the medical imaging education and clinical practice communities. Dr Seeram is currently an honorary senior lecturer at the Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Sydney; Adjunct Associate Professor of Medical Imaging and Radiation Sciences at Monash University, Australia; Adjunct Professor at the Faculty of Science, Charles Sturt University, Australia; and Adjunct Associate Professor of Medical Radiation Sciences at the University of Canberra. He also served as an external examiner for the computed tomography (CT) master's degree offered at University College Dublin, Ireland for about 4 years and subsequently advised the University of Sydney in Australia on curriculum matters regarding the CT specialization component of a new master's degree in medical imaging. Furthermore he has provided updates on the CT masters units offered by Charles Sturt University in Australia. Recently, he has developed a CT physics and instrumentation course for the bachelor's degree in medical radiation sciences offered by the University of Canberra in Australia
His current research interests are focused on radiation dose optimization in CT and digital radiography imaging systems. He has published several papers in professional and peer-reviewed radiologic technology journals and numerous books on CT, computers in radiology, radiographic instrumentation, digital radiography imaging systems, and radiation protection. Dr Seeram is a founding member of the Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Sciences and is now on editorial boards for Radiography; Biomedical Imaging and Intervention Journal; International Journal of Radiology and Medical Imaging; Open Journal of Radiology; Journal of Allied Health; Journal of Social Science & Allied Health Professions. He also serves on the international advisory panel for the Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences.
Textul de pe ultima copertă
This book addresses radiation protection of patients having digital radiography and computed tomography (CT) examinations. The literature on radiation doses to patients from these two modalities have reported that the doses to patients are high. As a result, the radiology community has focused on methods and procedures to keep these doses as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA) without compromising the diagnostic image quality. This book outlines the motivation for dose optimization in radiology, identifies and describes the ICRP principle of optimization, outlines the factors affecting the dose in digital radiography and in CT, and identifies and describes strategies used in digital radiography and in CT for dose optimization.
This book is intended for all those working in digital radiography and CT environments including radiological technologists, and radiographers, radiologists, biomedical engineering technologists, and student medical physicists.
It is best used as a supplement to radiologic science textbooks, and in particular, radiation protection textbooks. Furthermore, this book lays the foundations for students and practitioners engaged in research on dose reduction and dose optimization in radiology.
