Evaluation of the annual effective dose to Cath Lab staff in the Afshar Hospital, Yazd and suggesting the radiation protection strategies to better management of occupational dose
Introduction Due to the increasing use of angiography procedures and the higher risk of deterministic and stochastic effects for radiation workers of these sections than other radiological procedures, radiation safety is very important in angiography staff. So, this study aimed to obtain the effective dose of angiography staff and compare them with the standard dose limit and finally outline th...
متن کاملAccurate assessment of patient effective radiation dose and associated detriment risk from radiofrequency catheter ablation procedures.
BACKGROUND Radiofrequency (RF) cardiac catheter ablation procedures may require extended fluoroscopic exposure resulting in elevated radiation risk. The aim of the present study was to accurately establish RF ablation radiation risk levels and to provide means for accurate patient risk estimation from studies performed in any electrophysiology laboratory. METHODS AND RESULTS Fluoroscopy requi...
متن کاملEffective dose and thyroid cancer risk in panoramic imaging
Background and Aim: On panoramic radiographs, sensitive organs, including the thyroid, are exposed to radiation. Thyroid cancer is one of the most common cancers in Iran. That is why, in this study the effective dose and risk of thyroid cancer were estimated on panoramic radiography. Materials and Methods: Seventy GR200 thermoluminescence (TLD) dosimeters were used to estimate the absorbed dos...
