3D Automated Segmentation of Bronchial Abnormalities on Ultrashort Echo Time MRI: A Quantitative MR Outcome in Cystic Fibrosis

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cystic fibrosis (CF) monitoring relies on computed tomography (CT), but ultra‐short echo time MRI (UTE‐MRI) offers a radiation‐free alternative. However, its clinical adoption is hindered by the laborious and subjective manual analysis, which prevents standardized quantification of bronchial abnormalities.

Radiation Risk in 2D Mammography Screening: A Scoping Review of Modelling Strategies and Emerging AI Applications

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This scoping review examined models estimating long‐term radiation risks from repeated mammography screening. While modelling indicates the risks are low, approaches vary by protocol and vendor. Emerging AI tools show promise for improving personalised risk estimation, though further development is needed for cross‐platform compatibility.

Patient Dose Optimisation of Abdominopelvic Protocols During X‐Ray Imaging

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study evaluates organ doses in abdominopelvic radiography for both erect and supine positions, addressing dose optimisation concerns in Ghana. Using CalDose X and thermoluminescence dosimeters, organ doses and image quality were analysed, revealing significant dose reductions with optimised exposure parameters (70 kVp, 10 mAs, 110 cm FDD).

The Importance of Patient Positioning in Radiography When Utilising Automatic Exposure Control

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study highlights the impact of inaccurate patient positioning on dose and image quality when utilising the automatic exposure control (AEC) for radiographic examinations. While the AEC serves to optimise radiation dose to patients, the results here demonstrate that poor positioning can lead to significant dose implications for patients.

Radiation Dose and Risk in the Radiological Investigation of Suspected Non‐Accidental Injury (NAI)

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study is a retrospective analysis of 362 skeletal surveys performed over a 5‐year period for children under 5 years of age for suspected non‐accidental injury. We present effective dose data and the associated risks of radiation exposure for initial and follow‐up examinations.
