Dr. M. Mahesh provides a comprehensive introduction to the physics of radiography and mammography, helping radiologists build a strong understanding of the principles of modern X-ray imaging. Beginning with the fundamentals of X-ray production, the course explores X-ray interactions with matter, tube design, beam geometry, scatter radiation, and the factors that influence image formation. Take this course to gain insight into how these core concepts impact image quality, radiation dose, and everyday clinical imaging.

Dr. Mahesh also examines the evolution of digital radiography, reviewing the principles of computed radiography (CR) and direct digital radiography (DR), along with the advantages and practical considerations of each technology. He explains how digital imaging systems acquire, process, and display images while highlighting the technological advances that have improved efficiency and diagnostic performance across radiology.

The final section focuses on the specialized physics of mammography, covering mammography system design, compression, scatter reduction, image quality optimization, and the transition to digital mammography and digital breast tomosynthesis. Learners will develop a practical understanding of the technology behind breast imaging and how imaging parameters influence diagnostic accuracy, making this course an excellent resource for radiologists seeking a solid foundation in radiographic and mammographic physics.
