Reduction of dose in pelvic examinations of infants using modern X-ray techniques.

Abstract:

:A simple dose-saving procedure for the diagnosis of congenital hip dysplasia employing a diaphragm in near-focus position is presented. Doses to the skin and the gonads are measured with a phantom, comparing the new and other techniques. With optimal techniques the skin dose is smaller than 2 mR and the gonadal doses lie around 0.1 mR for both male and female patients.
