PURPOSE: To determine patient radiation doses for interventional radiology and
neuroradiology procedures, to identify procedures associated with higher radiation doses …

PURPOSE: To determine peak skin dose (PSD), a measure of the likelihood of radiation-
induced skin effects, for a variety of common interventional radiology and interventional …

In the early 1990s, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) received reports of
significant radiation-induced skin injuries associated with interventional fluoroscopy (2) …

There is growing concern regarding the radiation dose delivered during interventional
procedures, particularly in view of the increasing frequency and complexity of these …

The increasing complexity and numbers of interventional fluoroscopy procedures have led
to increasing patient doses of radiation and to increasing concern over staff doses. Hybrid …

Purpose To propose initial values for patient reference levels for fluoroscopically guided
procedures in the United States. Materials and Methods This secondary analysis of data …

Patient radiation doses received during interventional radiological procedures can be
significant. To aid in the establishment of reference dose levels, a patient dose survey has …

Although the wide acceptance of interventional radiology (IVR) procedures has led to
increasing numbers of interventions being performed, the radiation doses from IVR are …

A set of patient dose reference levels (RLs) for fluoroscopically guided interventional
procedures was obtained in a survey launched by the National Society of Interventional …

Interventional radiology (fluoroscopically-guided) techniques are being used by an
increasing number of clinicians not adequately trained in radiation safety or radiobiology …
