A novel radiation protection device based on tungsten functional paper for application in interventional radiology
Tungsten functional paper (TFP), which contains 80% tungsten by weight, has radiation-shielding properties. We investigated the use of TFP for the protection of operators during interventional or therapeutic angiography. The air kerma rate of scattered radiation from a simulated patient was measured, with and without TFP, using a water-equivalent phantom and fixed C-arm fluoroscopy. Measurement...
متن کاملRadiation Protection in Interventional Radiology
Interventional procedures are used by a significant number of medical specialities. Radiation protection (RP) for patients and staff is one of the main issues in Interventional Radiology (IR). UNSCEAR, ICRP and IAEA have devoted significant time over the last years to improve radiation safety in IR. Several combined factors: prolonged localized fluoroscopy, multiple radiographic exposures, and ...
متن کاملA Survey on the Radiation Protection Status among Radiology Staff
Introduction: Radiation exposure during radiological examination is a health concern, of which radiology professionals should be cognizant. We sought to evaluate the radiation protection knowledge, attitudes, and practice (KAP) amongst radiology staff of hospitals across 10 provinces of Iran. Materials and Methods: For evaluating the level of radiation protection KAP, 553 radiology staff were e...

15 صفحه اولPractical Aspects of Radiation Protection in Interventional Radiology
The rise in the frequency of interventional procedures over recent years is due to the significant benefits of interventional radiology. Patients may be treated as an out-patient for clinical conditions, which would have otherwise needed surgery, i.e., a more traumatic and expensive treatment. In some circumstances, for example in neuroradiology the aneurysm may be inoperable surgically and int...
