Assessment of patients skin dose undergoing coronary angiography and Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA)
Background: Practice of interventional cardiology procedures such as Coronary angiography (CA) and percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) has largely increased in recent years and is now changing to a matter of routine in many hospitals. The purpose of this study was to measure skin and organ doses in patients undergoing CA and PTCA and to find a probable relation with c...

Introduction: Nowadays we are witnessing an exponential application of interventional radiology techniques in various communities as well as Iran. Radiological technique is regarded as the 2nd contributing factor in increasing the amount of public doses in various societies. So that related radiation protection organization has recommended measuring patient d...
متن کاملReal-time skin dose Radiation Monitoring during Coronary Angiography
The collective dose of radiation used in medical investigations and procedures has increased by greater than 700% between 1980 and 2006 [1]. Consequently the use of ionizing radiation has developed into an important, yet potentially avoidable, public health threat [2] that deserves considerable attention. This is particularly the case in adult cardiology patients where coronary angiography repr...
متن کاملEvaluation of Maximum Patient Skin Dose Arising from Interventional Cardiology Using Thermoluminescence Dosimeter in Mashhad, Iran
Introduction The increasing practice of interventional fluoroscopy in diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular disease has risen attention to improve radiation protection of patients and cardiologists in these relatively high dose techniques. Therefore, nowadays there is an emphasis on the measurement of radiation dose received by patients and cardiologists arising from the relevant procedures...
