Status of eye lens radiation dose monitoring in European hospitals.
A questionnaire was developed by the members of WG12 of EURADOS in order to establish an overview of the current status of eye lens radiation dose monitoring in hospitals. The questionnaire was sent to medical physicists and radiation protection officers in hospitals across Europe. Specific topics were addressed in the questionnaire such as: knowledge of the proposed eye lens dose limit; monito...

متن کاملEye lens radiation exposure to interventional cardiologists: a retrospective assessment of cumulative doses.
Radiation dose to the eye lens is a crucial issue for interventional cardiologists (ICs) who are exposed during the procedures they perform. This paper presents a retrospective assessment of the cumulative eye lens doses of ICs enrolled in the O'CLOC study for Occupational Cataracts and Lens Opacities in interventional Cardiology. Information on the workload in the catheterisation laboratory, r...
متن کاملRadiation protection of the eye lens in medical workers—basis and impact of the ICRP recommendations
The aim of this article was to explore the evidence for the revised European Union basic safety standard (BSS) radiation dose limits to the lens of the eye, in the context of medical occupational radiation exposures. Publications in the open literature have been reviewed in order to draw conclusions on the exposure profiles and doses received by medical radiation workers and to bring together t...
متن کاملRadiation Protection of the Eye Lens During Brain CT Imaging Using a Barium Sulphate Vinyl Shield
Head CT examinations may result in significant and unnecessary exposure to the lens of the eye. The International Commission of Radiological Protection (ICRP) has estimated the threshold for detectable opacities in the lens from a single brief exposure to be 0.5 2Gy and the threshold for visual impairment (cataract) to be 5Gy. The lens dose for sequential CT scanning of the brain with the orbit...
