Abstract

Copy image is a software feature that is capable of duplicating images. So it can reduce errors in overexposure in patients. The purpose is to analyze feature usage images on radiation dose and image quality in lumbar and pelvic radiographic examinations. This research method uses quantitative with an experimental approach and research review. This research was carried out at Pertamina central Hospital Jakarta in February – March 2023 with the tools and materials used: X-ray multipurpose, computer radiography, and phantom anthropomorphic. For radiation dose, use the calculated value does area product (DAP), while for radiographic image quality use the range indicator exposure index (EI). The analysis carried out was comparing the use of copy images on radiation dose and image quality in lumbar and pelvic examinations. Results of using features copy image show a higher radiation value than examining the lumbar and pelvis separately one by one, while for image quality the value exposure index shows optimal indicators. Radiographers are expected to be wiser in implementing radiation protection when using procedures to copy images by minimizing the area of the collimation field.
