About

Pediatric dosimetry is the specialized academic field and methodological approach concerned with the measurement, calculation, and assessment of radiation dose delivered to pediatric patients. This discipline investigates the unique interactions of ionizing radiation with the developing anatomy, physiology, and increased radiosensitivity of children, which is critical for optimizing medical imaging and radiation therapy protocols to minimize radiation-induced risks throughout their longer life expectancy.
