We conclude that radiation exposure does not correlate directly with fluoroscopy time. Technical refinements of the digital technique such as Last Image Hold frames, which allow images to be stored with no increase in radiation dose and help to reduce digital fluorography exposures and pulsed fluoroscopy, result in significant dose reduction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
