“…An analysis of literature on exposure of infants in intensive care [2]- [6], [15]- [25], leads to contrasting conclusions for the choice of optimal exposure parameters and positioning of image device. Concerning the selection of beam quality, some studies [3], [15], [16] advise, in agreement to what indicated in [13], the usage of additional filtering at the output of the X-ray beam: the purpose is sharpening the beam by removing low energy components which don't have a contribution on image formation and actually increase noise while increasing imparted dose. In some studies [4], [17], [20], [21], though, usage of additional filtering is not used.…”
