Abstract: In the current radiation protection system, preventive measures and occupational exposure limits for controlling occupational exposure to ionizing radiation are based on the linear no-threshold extrapolation model. However, currently an increasing body...
Does radiation exposure during pediatric supracondylar humeral fracture surgery change according to the C-arm position? A comparison of two different techniques.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Injury [Injury] 2023 Oct; Vol. 54 (10), pp. 110962. Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 Jul 26.
Abstract: Introduction: In the surgical treatment of supracondylar humeral fractures (SHF), the surgeon has to stand right next to the fluoroscopy device, so it is very important to know how to use it in the most appropriate way to reduce radiation exposure. The...
Exposure to low-dose radiation in occupational settings and ischaemic heart disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Occupational and environmental medicine [Occup Environ Med] 2023 Nov 23; Vol. 80 (12), pp. 706-714. Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 Nov 23.
Abstract: Ionising radiation is a human carcinogen, but the evidence is less clear that exposure to low-dose ionising radiation (LDIR) increases the risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes. We synthesised the literature of chronic occupational exposure to LDIR a...
A practical method for routine eye lens dosimetry of staff in interventional radiology.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Radiation protection dosimetry [Radiat Prot Dosimetry] 2023 Oct 11; Vol. 199 (15-16), pp. 1779-1784.
Abstract: Hospital staff doing fluoroscopy-guided interventions receive the highest doses and are at risk of exceeding the new occupational eye lens dose limit of 20 mSv. Since the introduction of the new limit in the International Commission on Radiological Pro...
Radiation exposure and leukaemia risk among cohorts of persons exposed to low and moderate doses of external ionising radiation in childhood.

Source(s): British journal of cancer [Br J Cancer] 2023 Oct; Vol. 129 (7), pp. 1152-1165. Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 Aug 18.
Abstract: Background: Many high-dose groups demonstrate increased leukaemia risks, with risk greatest following childhood exposure; risks at low/moderate doses are less clear.Methods: We conducted a pooled analysis of the major radiation-associated leukaemias (a...

Abstract: Due to the extended localized fluoroscopy, many radiographic exposures, and multiple procedures that might result in tissue reaction, patients and personnel received a significant radiation dose during interventional cardiology (IR) procedures. This st...
Radiation exposure in interventional cardiology: extremities doses.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Radiation protection dosimetry [Radiat Prot Dosimetry] 2023 Nov 02; Vol. 199 (18), pp. 2238-2243.
Abstract: X-rays are widely used in interventional cardiology (IC). Medical staff is exposed to ionising radiations with difficulties to accurately estimate the absorbed dose, on the other hand, it is well known that eye lens and extremities are the most exposed...
Physiological Effects of Co-exposure to Ionizing Radiation and Noise within Occupational Exposure Limits.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Health physics [Health Phys] 2023 Nov 01; Vol. 125 (5), pp. 332-337. Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 Aug 07.
Abstract: Abstract: Workers are frequently exposed to the occupational hazards of ionizing radiation and noise. Co-exposure to these hazards is not well understood in terms of their physiological effects. The aim of this study was to investigate the physiologica...
