Investigating the adjacent patient radiation dose received during a simulated ward chest X-ray examination [PDF]
Introduction: A patient having a chest X-ray will inevitably be exposed to radiation from the primary beam. Using a light beam diaphragm (LBD) on the X-ray tube reduces scattered radiation at the X-ray tube through longitudinal and horizontal collimation.
