This ancient Greek mathematician, often called the "Father of Geometry," revolutionized the study of mathematics. His seminal thirteen-volume work presented mathematical theorems and problems with exceptional clarity, conciseness, and logic. This rigorous approach, establishing principles from basic axioms, made it the primary textbook for teaching mathematics for over two millennia. His legacy lies in his systematic method and profound influence on the logical structuring of mathematical thought.

Focusing on the crucial topic of radiation protection, this book explores the high radiation doses associated with digital radiography and computed tomography (CT) examinations. It emphasizes the importance of minimizing these doses while maintaining diagnostic image quality, adhering to the ALARA principle. The text delves into dose optimization motivations, the ICRP optimization principle, and various factors influencing radiation exposure. Additionally, it presents effective strategies for dose reduction in both digital radiography and CT, making it a valuable resource for the radiology community.
