Optimising image quality and radiation dose with a focus on geometry and attenuation (2021)
Thesis
Tugwell-Allsup, J. Optimising image quality and radiation dose with a focus on geometry and attenuation. (Thesis). University of Salford

Optimisation in medical imaging ensures an appropriate balance is achieved between acquiring images of diagnostic quality and the radiation dose received by the patient. Pragmatic, simple and effective methods are essential to ensure that optimisatio... Read More about Optimising image quality and radiation dose with a focus on geometry and attenuation.

Investigating the ability to use the CT scan projection radiograph to monitor adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (2019)
Thesis
Alrehily, F. Investigating the ability to use the CT scan projection radiograph to monitor adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. (Thesis). University of Salford

Introduction: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a spinal deformity that causes the spine to bend laterally. Patients with AIS undergo frequent X-ray examinations to monitor the progression of the deformity through the measurement of the Cobb a...
