Repeat rate analysis of lower limb radiograph for digital radiography in general radiography at Pantai Klang Hospital Selangor

Assessing the repeat rate is crucial to reduce unnecessary dose to the patient by identifying the major cause for repeating the x-rays exposure to the patient and apply corrective measures. To analyse the repeat rate of routine lower limb projections in direct digital radiography (DR) from general...
