Radiological Examination Science Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that studies how to measure and protect against radiation exposure from radiological examinations, and the quality of the equipment used.
AboutAbout the lab
Measuring radiation exposure from examinations and finding ways to protect against it
The Radiological Examination Science Lab studies the measurement and evaluation of radiation exposure from radiological examinations and protection against it, as well as quality control and optimization of radiological examination equipment.
The lab works on radiation exposure of patients and medical staff, medical radiation exposure of children, and the development of new methods for measuring and evaluating radiation dose.
The lab also provides education in diagnostic radiological technology and medical physics, and trains researchers with problem-solving skills.
The lab is a division within the graduate Department of Health Sciences, and its faculty are also affiliated with the Disaster Radiation Medicine division of the International Research Institute of Disaster Science.
Key terms
- IVR (interventional radiology)
- A treatment approach that uses catheters and similar tools while viewing the inside of the body through imaging
- Radiation dose
- A value expressing the amount of radiation received, used to measure the magnitude of exposure
- Quality control
- Inspecting and checking examination equipment so that it performs reliably to specification
