Diagnostic reference levels in medical imaging: review and additional advice
Abstract:
Diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) should be used by regional, national and local authorised bodies. The numerical values of DRLs are advisory, however, implementation of the DRL concept may be required by an authorised body. The concept of DRLs allows flexibility in their selection and implementation. The present ICRP advice does not specify quantities, numerical values or details of implementation for DRLs. This is the task of the regional, national and local authorised bodies, each of which should meet the needs in its respective area. ICRP considers that any reasonable and practical approach, consistent with the advice, will improve the management of patient doses in medical imaging.

Radiological Investigation II: MRI and Ventilation Perfusion Scan
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Ventilation Perfusion Scans are two radiological investigations that offer detailed diagnostic images of the body, particularly lung structures.
MRI
MRI uses magnetic fields and radiofrequency signals to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissues. This technology provides a more detailed diagnostic image than CT scans, enabling it to characterize pulmonary nodules, stage bronchogenic carcinoma, and evaluate inflammatory activity in...

Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan
Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...
