This interactive course provides a comprehensive overview of radiation physics. It covers the radiation interactions with matter and the different Hounsfield units for each body tissue. This video is a part of our ASRT-approved 6.25 CE credit Basics of CT course: • https://bit.ly/3T0WvI2 • For more CT courses check our full CT package for 30+ CE credits: • https://bit.ly/3zB3z7g • 🚩Subscribe and hit the notification bell to get notified of our latest videos. • Chapters: • 00:00 Intro • 01:33 Radiation Physics • 02:55 Radiation interactions with matter • 04:28 Attenuation • 05:30 Hounsfield units of various tissues • 06:55 Patient dose reduction and optimization • The objective of this video is to provide a comprehensive overview of radiation physics in a CT scan procedure. • Understanding radiation physics is instrumental to achieve radiation dose optimization. This ultimately serves the goal of providing the best possible patient care. • In this module, you will learn about the different aspects of radiation physics in CT. It will provide you with a better understanding of how radiation interacts with matter, and you will learn about x-ray photons’ attenuation. Moreover, since attenuation is dependent on the type of tissues being scanned, this video will cover the Hounsfield units. At the end of this module, a quick overview of patient dose reduction and optimization is covered. This topic will be further elaborated on in the coming videos. So stay tuned next week for our new uploads! • #HounsfiledUnits #RadiationInteractions #RadiationInteractionsWithMatter #CTScan #RadTechs • #MedicalProfessionals • Be more than just certified, choose Medical Professionals for your radiology CE.
