Penentuan Dosis Paparan Radiasi Pesawat Sinar-X Pemeriksaan Thorax Berdasarkan Indeks Massa Tubuh (IMT)

Theres been a research that aims to determine the effect of exposure dose and the eksposi on examination of the thorax against IMT adult patients. Data of a study that used at the time of the observation is height and weight of the patient, faktor eksposi which consists of the rated voltage (kV), Current (mA) and time(s) as well as the value of the FFD at the time of inspection. Data retrieval with the useof the type of examination of the thorax with the type of irradiation of Posterior-Anterior (PA). The age rangeof the patients who used the time of the study in accordance with the rules of the department of HEALTH in the adult category, namely 26- 45 years. Testing on the test data using-F with a significance level of 0.05. Based on the results of the test data using test-F obtained a significance value of 0.000 and the value of Fcount 49,166 with the value of the significance level of 0.05 and the valueof Ftable of 3.35. From these results meet thecriteria of testing in statistics where H1 is accepted and H0 is rejected, so it can be concluded that there is influence on the value of the exposure dose and the value of the index ekposi against Body Mass Index (BMI) where the value of the eksposi affect the outcomeof the imageplane X-ray examination of the thorax.
