Abstract
It was discussed the status and prospects of the radiation dose reducing in digital fluorography screening. It was considered the advantages and disadvantages of the existing methods used to solve task of patient radiation dose reducing. In article were studied the effect from using of the different screen types and specialized image processing. Here were presented the measurement results of radiation dose by using the different screen types. It was showed the possibility of the image contrast changing and, consequently, the patient radiation dose by using specialized image processing software package.
