Patient dose in routine X-ray examinations in Yazd state
Background: Medical x-rays are the largest man-made source of public exposure to ionizing radiation. It is important to avoid conditions where the amount of radiation used is more than that needed for the procedure. Materials and Methods: The Entrance Skin Exposure (ESE) measurement was conducted for quality control of x-ray machines and survey of operator’s experimental techniques. The ESEs we...
متن کاملLocal Diagnostic Reference Levels for Some Common Diagnostic X-Ray Examinations In Sabzevar County of Iran
Introduction: Diagnostic reference level (DRL) is a useful tool for the promotion of optimization. The national DRLs (NDRLs) are useful, brief, and robust guidelines for optimizing radiation protection in a country. The aim of this study was to extract the local DRLs (LDRLs) for some common radiologic examination in Sabzevar county. Materials and Methods: There are eight radiology departments ...

متن کاملMonte Carlo Method for Radiological X-ray Examinations
The organ doses and the effective dose of patients exposed at an X-ray beam, having photon energies between 10–150 keV, are analyzed by using a new method named IradMed. Three major radiological procedures, mammography, radiography and Computer Tomography are considered. The Rayleigh scattering, the Compton scattering and the photoelectric effect were taken into account for patient dose calcula...
متن کاملLocal Diagnostic Reference Levels for Common Pediatric X-Ray Examinations in Khorasan Razavi Province, Iran
Introduction Given the fact that children are more sensitive to radiation, compared to adults, special attention needs to be paid to radiation protection in pediatric radiology. Diagnostic reference level (DRL) has been defined to be employed as a practical tool for examining the overall performance of a radiological center in terms of patient dose among a series of similar equipments in an are...
