Active electronic personal dosemeter in interventional radiology.
A recently developed active electronic personal dosemeter (AEPD) was utilised in order to measure the levels and the structure of occupational exposure to scattered X-ray radiation of medical staff who performed percutaneous revascularisation therapy that involves interventional radiology (IR) on the pelvis and upper leg arteries. The AEPDs, placed on the operators' and assistants' chests, that...
متن کاملDesign of Active-Type Personal Dosemeter for High-Energy Neutrons
In order to design an active-type personal dosemeter having sufficient sensitivity to high-energy neutrons up to 100 MeV, the characteristic response of several types of silicon (Si) semiconductor detectors has been investigated experimentally and theoretically. At first, the response of each detector has been checked to protons accelerated by a Van de Graff accelerator installed at Kobe Univer...

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 کاملInterventional Chest Radiology
Transthoracic needle biopsy (TNB) of pulmonary nodules requires the skills of two specialists: (1) the radiologist and (2) the pathologist. From the radiologist’s perspective, the goal is very simple: to obtain a sufficient amount of material through the needle to allow the pathologist to make a diagnosis with a minimum of complications to the patient. Similarly, the goal of the pathologist is ...
