Abstract

Examination with medical radiography is the most significant advances in medicine in the 21st century. Diagnostic imaging occupies an important position in all medical subjects, surgical and internal medicine, including radiology, orthopedics, and neurosurgery. However, the invention associated with conventional radiography devices has focused only on emphasizing the efficient aspects of the examination or obtaining clearer images without considering the age and disease-induced constraints of the patient's posture. The newly developed X-ray aids to solve this problem can effectively perform X-ray imaging of children's who have difficulty communicating and controlling. It is also thought to be a good way to provide accurate imaging information and minimize radiation exposure for children.
