Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.Imaging post‐processing algorithms are helpful in improving the visibility of chest lines and tubes on standard chest X‐rays. Examples include the advanced edge enhancement and grey‐scale inversion, and this study evaluates the usefulness of these algorithms for enhancing visual image quality and reader confidence among student radiographers.

Radiation Dose Optimisation Through Artificial Intelligence (AI)‐based Auto‐Thorax Collimation
Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.This study evaluated AI‐based Auto‐Thorax Collimation (ATC) for radiation dose optimisation in posteroanterior chest radiography compared with manual collimation. ATC demonstrated tighter lateral collimation and reduced inter‐operator variability while maintaining comparable repeat rates.

Mapping the Landscape of Over‐Scanning in CT Imaging: A Scoping Review
Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.Over‐scanning in CT is highly prevalent and contributes to unnecessary radiation exposure, with notable impact on radiosensitive organs. Standardised protocols and AI‐assisted planning show strong potential to optimise scan range and reduce excess dose.

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.This study investigated how radiographers assess radiographic image quality using the think‐aloud technique. It reveals that image quality assessment is shaped by both technical standards and subjective, contextual factors, including patient condition and interprofessional dynamics. This highlights the importance of balancing standardised criteria with

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.Determining the appropriate volume of iodinated contrast media (ICM) for portal venous phase abdominal CT is challenging. Objective image quality assessment demonstrates weight‐based volume dosing reduces the dependence of enhancement on patient size, compared to fixed volume.

The Current Concepts of Closed Chest Drainage in Lobectomy of Lung Cancer
Chinese Journal of Lung Cancer, 2010 It is widely accepted by most thoracic surgeons that a complete control on fluid and air in the pleural space could only be maintained by conventional closed chest drainage (two chest tubes).

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 85-92, March 2025.This study established that patient's lateral width measurements made from scanned projection radiograph (SPR) is an overestimate compared to those measured from tomographic slices by about 10%. Size‐specific dose estimates (SSDE) calculated using lateral width measured from SPR correlates well with SSDE calculated using water equivalent diameter of ...
