Evaluation of X-ray Beam Collimation in Adult Chest Radiography
The collimation of chest radiographs among the three centers was adequate. Based on the study findings, the X-ray beam collimation was sufficient, indicating good optimization and no unnecessary radiation exposure to patients and staff. The collimation of chest radiographs in females was significantly inferior to that of males.
