This increases the DXA dose and changes the comparison. The bottom line is that with reasonably performed DXA, with current technology, and with reasonably performed QCT, the DXA dose will be lower.

The dose to staff in DXA facilities is generally small. However, new developments in DXA imaging technology (fan beam, cone beam, C-arm configurations) can result in larger scattered exposure levels.

Recognising the medical uses of this technology, Röntgen quickly took the ... In addition, the crew illustrated the functionality of DXA (Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry), a type of specialized ...
