Radiation dose management quiz

When it comes to radiation dose management, the ALARA principle emphasizes: Striving for the lowest possible radiation dose without compromising diagnostic image quality Administering the highest radiation dose to ensure accurate diagnoses Focusing on patient comfort rather than radiation dose optimization Ignoring radiation dose concerns for the sake of efficiency

The concept of "Justification" in radiation dose management refers to: Minimizing radiation exposure through appropriate imaging protocol selection Ensuring that the radiographer justifies their decision to administer radiation Evaluating the benefits and risks of an imaging procedure before it is performed Discarding any radiation exposure concerns for urgent medical cases

The term "Diagnostic Reference Levels" (DRLs) in radiation dose management refers to: Maximum radiation dose limits allowed for diagnostic imaging procedures Standardized radiation dose values used as reference points for specific procedures or anatomical regions Threshold levels of radiation below which no adverse effects are expected Radiation dose levels associated with the highest diagnostic image quality

Which of the following is NOT a recommended strategy for reducing patient radiation dose in computed tomography (CT) imaging? Using automatic exposure control (AEC) techniques Applying appropriate collimation to focus the radiation beam Increasing the tube current and exposure time Utilizing iterative reconstruction algorithms

The term "Image Gently" is a campaign that aims to: Advocate for increased radiation dose during pediatric imaging Raise awareness about the importance of optimizing radiation dose in pediatric imaging Encourage the use of high-dose imaging protocols in pediatric patients Disregard radiation dose concerns in pediatric imaging
