Exposure index values vary widely between CR systems
Imaging facilities trying to reduce digital x-ray dose are turning to exposure index (EI) values to see how much radiation patients receive. New research indicates that while this is a good idea for digital radiography, it's not so hot for computed radiography (CR) due to wide variation in EI measures.
