[An approach to decreasing the dose load in prophylactic X-ray examination]
Abstract:
The concept of small radiation dose is uncertain. Usually, doses below 300 mSv are considered as small. In this work, a mathematical approach is used to consider changes in peripheral blood count caused by exposure to an effective dose below 1 mSv. The ACS-ENOFIT device is used to assess the efficiency of treatment of a number of diseases. The results obtained in this work show that an analytical method should be used for determination of the dose value and monitoring of changes in the systems of human body.

Definition and Purpose
An X-ray, or radiograph, is a non-invasive method that uses ionizing radiation to take images of internal structures. It is mainly used in cardiac imaging to examine the heart, lungs, and major blood vessels, aiming to identify abnormalities in the heart's size, shape, and position, such as heart failure, congenital defects, and vascular...

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...
