The radiation dose received by cardiologists during percutaneous coronary interventions, electrophysiology procedures and other interventional cardiology procedures can vary by more than an order of magnitude for the same type of procedure and for similar patient doses. There is particular concern regarding occupational dose to the lens of the eye. This document provides recommendations for occ...

The Low Energy Booster, like any high-energy accelerator contains serious personnel hazards with the potential for deleterious results if precautions are not implemented. Hazards for most accelerators include: electrical hazards (high voltage and high current), ionizing and non-ionizing radiation, flammable gases, and high magnetic fields. For the LEB, the predominate hazards of concern are ele...

Introduction: With the rapid advancement of technology in today's world, the use of ionizing radiation and radioactive materials has been expanding significantly. The use of radioactive resources and equipment in medical sciences is increasing. Failure to observe safety precautions when working with radiation can have serious risks for employees, people, the environment and eve...

Introduction The purpose of this study was to evaluate personal shields in radiation departments of hospitals affiliated to Mashhad University of Medical Sciences. Materials and Methods First, the information related to 109 personal shields was recorded and evaluated by imaging equipment. Afterwards, the equivalent lead thickness (ELT) of 62 personal shields was assessed, using dosimeter and st...

OBJECTIVES To determine opinions and perceptions of interventional cardiologists on the topic of radiation and vascular access choice. BACKGROUND Transradial approach for cardiac catheterization has been increasing in popularity worldwide. There is evidence that transradial access (TRA) may be associated with increasing radiation doses compared to transfemoral access (TFA). METHODS We distr...
