The post-operative course was complicated by 7 days of ileus. An upper gastrointestinal (GI) series (i.e. barium swallow) with small bowel follow-through was requested. There were no immediate complications during t...
متن کاملEvaluation of Radiation Exposure Pattern and Radiation Absorbed Dose Resulting from Occupational Exposure of Anesthesiologists to Ionizing Radiation
Introduction: Little information is available concerning the radiation exposure of anesthesiologists, and no such data have previously been collected in Iran. This prospective study was performed to determine the amount of radiation exposure of anesthesiologists for the purpose of assessing whether or not dangerous levels of radiation exposures were being reached, and to identify factors that c...
متن کاملRadiation dose measurement in gastrointestinal studies.
Barium studies investigations (barium swallow, barium meal and barium enema) are the basic routine radiological examination, where barium sulphate suspension is introduced to enhance image contrast of gastrointestinal tracts. The aim of this study was to quantify the patients' radiation doses during barium studies and to estimate the organ equivalent dose and effective dose with those procedure...

tissues. Because of these facts and ethical issues, it is impossible to study the effect of radiation on human health. Most human studies related to radiation exposure were based on several historical event in the 21 century such as the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in World War II and the Chernobyl disaster. From these events, although exact doses are unknown, most people believe t...
