Abstract

PURPOSE: A first demonstrator system for clinical dark-field chest radiography was recently constructed. Due to its scanning acquisition, conventional exposure regulation systems are not possible. This study presents the adaptation of exposure to each patient individually, using a conventional radiograph as a reference. Additionally, an alternative approach for individual exposure planning based o…
