warning

"The entrance skin dose (or entrance surface dose), abbreviated as ESD, is the measure of the radiation dose that is absorbed (measured in milligray) by the skin as it reaches the patient. Entrance skin dose is a directly measurable quantity, often, measured using thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLD) 1. Entrance skin dose is often a benchmark measurement used to assist in quality control and optimisation in radiography departments. However, it is a poor indication of radiation risk as it does not account for tissue sensitivity, penetration and area of the x-ray beam."
