Abstract:
Objective:To study and analyze the quality assurance(QA) and quality control(QC) in chest radiography based on X-ray digital radiography (DR).Methods:600 cases ( 320 male cases, 280 female cases, age range from 2 to 68 years old, with an average 48.2 years old) chest radiography based on DR were random sampling from database during the period from Oct., 2015 to Dec., 2015. In accordance with chest imaging criteria, these images were graded, and calculated the share rate. After analyzing the causes that produced the bad images, a number of measures were provided to improve the quality of image.Results:The patients can be examined in short time, and there are a large number of information with high resolution and rich layers. The qualified rate was 100% (Grade A with 525, accounting for 87.5%,Grade B with 63, accounting for 10.5%; Grade C with 12 , accounting for 2%), and the rate of waste film was zero.Conclusion: DR produced by computer digital image processing technology combined with X-ray radiation technology has powerful post-processing function. This function can combine a series of quality control measures to improve image quality as reducing radiation dosage, and finally, to realize the target of QA and QC.
