A comparative study of collimation in bedside chest radiography for preterm infants in two teaching hospitals

A comparative study of collimation in bedside chest radiography for preterm infants in two teaching hospitals

Objective: Unnecessary exposure of the abdomen, arms or head may lead to a substantial increase of the radiation dose in portable chest X-rays on the neonatal intensive care unit. The objective was to identify potential factors influencing inappropriate exposure of non-thoracic structures in two tea...
