Inspection of lead aprons: criteria for rejection.
Lead aprons utilized by personnel performing fluoroscopy are routinely inspected for damage to comply with the requirements of hospital accrediting organizations. Fluoroscopic or radiographic examination of lead aprons may reveal imperfections ranging from small pinholes to large tears. Currently, there are no standards establishing a criteria for acceptance or rejection of lead aprons. As a co...
متن کاملInspection of lead aprons: a practical rejection model.
As a sequel to the article by Ken Lambert and Tara McKeon, we propose a model by which defects in lead aprons may easily be evaluated on a routine basis. The model is applicable to lead aprons of various lead equivalent thicknesses. As recommended rejection criteria, we have used the concept of additional dose that an individual might receive due to defects in the lead (Pb) apron. The model has...
متن کاملEvaluation of the transmitted exposure through lead equivalent aprons used in a radiology department, including the contribution from backscatter.
A study was conducted to evaluate the radiation transmission through lead equivalent aprons that are used in a radiology department. A large area beam (poor geometry) was employed for the transmission measurements, and backscatter was simulated by placing 7" of Lucite behind each apron. Separate ionization chambers were used to measure the incident and transmitted x-ray beams. Transmission meas...
متن کاملPeykan check, a simple continuous quality control method for hematology analyzers
A simple inexpensive con!nuous quality control method, by means of eight basic blood coun!ng parameters, obtained from automated hematology analyzers, using pa!ent samples, is described. A few samples with low, normal and high values were selected and introduced to the instrument early in the morning as the first count, the results of which are plo#ed on the appropriate chart as dots. The sa...
