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 …

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 …

Purpose Knowledge of medical radiation exposure permits application of radiation
protection principles. In our center, the first dedicated real-time, automated patient and staff …

Purpose: To report estimated radiation doses to the eye lens of the interventionalist from
procedures performed with and without use of radiation protection measures. Materials and …

The benefits of fluoroscopically guided interventional procedures are significant and have
established new standards in the clinical management of many diseases. Despite the …

INTRODUCTION:: Radiation comes in different forms of energy in motion. Doses of radiation
and the area of interest are important considerations when imaging patients, particularly …

The primary goal of radiation management in interventional radiology is to minimize the
unnecessary use of radiation. Clinical radiation management minimizes radiation risk to the …

Interventional cardiology procedures are usually associated with high patient doses and
even deterministic radiation effects may occur. Expensive digital flat panels are preferably …
