About

Biography

As a medical physicist, Samuel Brady, PhD's, primary experience lies in developing and maintaining protocols for imaging efficacy and safety. His particular interest lies in dose-minimization for CT imaging techniques. This is a particularly important concept in pediatric radiology, where tissues are still developing and are thus especially susceptible to radiation damage.
