Decreasing collimation. In X-ray beams, collimation is importing for image quality and patient dose during fluoroscopy and radiation projections. This process makes light rays parallel and adjusts the optical axes concerning one another. When the volume is actively collimated, the patient reduces the risk of radiation.
When the amount is less, it leads to improved image quality and subject contrast. In X-rays collimation, the field of view and resolution performance remains the same. At the same time, collimation can reduce the brightness of the image, which can increase the risk of radiation to the patient.
