This book offers the reader sound advice on how to perform optimal conventional pediatric radiographs and how to obtain quick and easy organ dose estimates in order to improve the optimization process in pediatric imaging. Clear guidelines are provided for minimization of the radiation exposure of children through optimization of the radiation exposure conditions, and conversion coefficients are presented for calculation of the organ doses achieved in organs and tissues during conventional pediatric radiography, taking into consideration both optimal and suboptimal radiation field settings. Previously published conversion coefficients have failed to represent the variation in radiation field settings in daily clinical routine, which has made it difficult for the pediatric radiologist to estimate the impact of the field settings on absorbed doses in organs and tissues. The aim of this book, co-written by a pediatric radiologist, a physician and physicist, and a medical radiation technologist, is to address this issue by providing, for the first time, a thorough overview of clinical radiation field settings and their implications for radiation protection. An accompanying volume is devoted to fluoroscopy.
Veronika Rösenberger, the chief technologist of the paediatric radiology department of Dr. von Hauners' Children's Hospital of the University of Munich from 1979 to 2015, was one of the leading paediatric radiographers in Germany. Very early she qualified as a teaching technologist and has become an expert of paediatric imaging, especially radiography, fluoroscopy, angiography and scintigraphy. She took an active part in the organization of the annual meeting of the European Society of Paediatric Radiology, held 1990 in Munich. Between 1994 and 2000 she participated in several research projects on paediatric imaging of the European
Karl O. Schneider, professor of paediatrics and paediatric radiology, was the head of the paediatric radiology department of Dr. von Hauner's Children's Hospital of the University of Munich from 1990 to 2013. He conducted four large Europe-wide dosimetric and image quality surveys on frequent paediatric x-ray examinations which were granted by research programmes of the European Commission. He was the head of the European network of paediatric radiologists and co-author of the European Guidelines on Quality criteria for diagnostic radiographic images in paediatrics published by the European Commission in 1996. Up to now, he published more than 200 original papers and many book chapters mainly on the topic of paediatric dosimetry and radiation protection. For many years he was an active member of the German Radiation Protection Board and elaborated the paediatric part of the national guidelines of the German Medical Association. For more than thirty years, he was member of the European Society of Paediatric Radiology, the German Roentgen Society and honorary member of the German Society of Paediatric Radiology.
