Occupational Eye Lens Dose in Interventional Radiology and Cardiology: New Insights
The advances in digital imaging and the improvement in interventional tools and devices like catheters and stents have expanded the use of interventional procedures. During the period 1998-2008, the total number of interventional procedures increased by 78% [1]. Interventional radiology [IR] and cardiology [IC] procedures deliver high radiation doses both to patients and medical personnel, whic...
متن کاملEvaluation of occupational and medical dose on interventional cardiology procedures by Monte Carlo method
A cardiologia intervencionista é um conjunto de procedimentos médicos que tem como principal foco diagnosticar e tratar pacientes com problemas cardiovasculares. Embora o uso dos raios X neste caso seja justificado, é de grande importância fazer uma avaliação das doses tanto nos pacientes quanto nos profissionais envolvidos, pois as doses podem ser altas, uma vez que, na maioria dos casos, os p...
متن کاملPatient Radiation Doses in Interventional Cardiology Procedures
Interventional cardiology procedures result in substantial patient radiation doses due to prolonged fluoroscopy time and radiographic exposure. The procedures that are most frequently performed are coronary angiography, percutaneous coronary interventions, diagnostic electrophysiology studies and radiofrequency catheter ablation. Patient radiation dose in these procedures can be assessed either...
متن کامل1 Patient doses in interventional cardiology procedures
In most countries of European Union legislation requires the determination of the total skin dose to patient resulting from interventional procedures to assess the risk of deterministic effect. To this end, various dose indicators like dose area product (DAP), cumulative dose (CD) and entrance dose at the patient plane (EFD) are used in clinical practice. The study aims at relating those dose i...
متن کاملRadiation-Induced Noncancer Risks in Interventional Cardiology: Optimisation of Procedures and Staff and Patient Dose Reduction
Concerns about ionizing radiation during interventional cardiology have been increased in recent years as a result of rapid growth in interventional procedure volumes and the high radiation doses associated with some procedures. Noncancer radiation risks to cardiologists and medical staff in terms of radiation-induced cataracts and skin injuries for patients appear clear potential consequences ...
