Estimation of effective dose in some digital angiographic and interventional procedures.
In general, effective dose values for similar interventional vascular radiology (IVR) procedures are different. This is due to problems with the classification of radiological procedures, which make comparisons difficult. Patient size, examination technique and clinical condition as well as the skill of the medical radiologists also affect effective dose. Currently, there is a broad agreement o...
متن کاملDose from syringe procedures during technetium-99m radiopharmaceutical preparation.
UNLABELLED We examined the dose from 99mTc contained in syringes and shielded vials to assess in detail the dose burdens in a central pharmacy. METHODS Absorbed-dose rates at the end of the plunger of a shielded syringe, when 99mTc is contained either in the syringe or in a shielded vial from which the activity would be drawn, were measured with CaF2 dosimeters. The dose rates also were calcu...
متن کاملEffective patient dose during neuroradiological C-arm CT procedures.
PURPOSE We aimed to determine the effective dose given to patients during neuroradiological C-arm computed tomography (CT) procedures. MATERIALS AND METHODS Measurements were performed on 48 patients using a dose-area product (DAP) meter. A PC-based Monte Carlo program (PCXMC, STUK, Helsinki, Finland) was used to calculate the effective dose from the DAP values of each patient. Organ doses we...
متن کاملSymptomatic cerebral air embolism during neuro-angiographic procedures: incidence and problem avoidance.
BACKGROUND While clinically symptomatic cerebral air embolism secondary to neuro-angiographic procedures is rare, the incidence in a large series of procedures is unknown. Understanding this complication's frequency and etiology is critical if systems are to be instituted to reduce its incidence. METHODS We prospectively reviewed 4,568 consecutive neuro-angiographic procedures performed betwe...
متن کاملPatient dose from barium procedures.
The objective of this work was to estimate patient doses (dose-area product, organ dose, effective dose and entrance surface dose) for barium procedures. A total of 175 procedures, in 175 patients, for five different examination categories was analysed. Dose-area product was determined using a transmission ionization chamber. Organ dose and effective dose were assessed using a knowledge of the ...
