| Abstract:: |
| Objective To assess the level of radiation exposures of operators in three typical types of interventional fluoroscopic procedures. Methods Alderson Radiation Therapy (ART) phantom was used to stimulate the practices of diagnosis and therapy using TLDs for dose measurement. The radiation exposures of eye lens, neck, and breast were measured when the lead shielding of machine was on/off and the equivalent dose and effective dose to the eye lens were estimated. Results Radiation exposure of head was obviously reduced by 85%-90% when the lead shielding was on. The doses in different procedures were different. In cerebral angiography the dose equivalent of eye len was the highest in the three procedures. The annual effective dose for the operators was smaller in peripheral vascular interventions than that in cardiovascular interventional therapy and that in cerebral angiography. Conclusions The operators involved in intervention will receive an annual effective dose of less than 20 mSv as recommended by the ICRP under the protection conditions provided by the current study, except for eye lens. Attention should be paid to the protection of the eyes of operators. |
