A parametric study of occupational radiation dose in interventional radiology by Monte-Carlo simulations
(2020-10-01)
Article
Open AccessThis paper presents the results of a parametric study on the occupational exposure in interventional radiology to explore the influence of various variables on the staff doses. These variables include the angiography beam ... -
Comparison of methods for H*(10) calculation from measured LaBr3(Ce) detector spectra
(2018-07-01)
Article
Open AccessThe Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya (UPC) and the Centro de Investigaciones Energéticas, Medioambientales y Tecnológicas (CIEMAT) have evaluated methods based on stripping, conversion coefficients and Maximum Likelihood ... -
Fast Monte Carlo codes for occupational dosimetry in interventional radiology
(2021-05)
Article
Open AccessInterventional radiology techniques cause radiation exposure both to patient and personnel. The radiation dose to the operator is usually measured with dosimeters located at specific points above or below the lead aprons. ... -
Feasibility study of computational occupational dosimetry: evaluating a proof-of-concept in an endovascular and interventional cardiology setting
(2022-10-05)
Article
Open AccessIndividual monitoring of radiation workers is essential to ensure compliance with legal dose limits and to ensure that doses are As Low As Reasonably Achievable. However, large uncertainties still exist in personal dosimetry ... -
Personal dosimetry using monte-carlo simulations for occupational dose monitoring in interventional radiology: The results of a proof of concept in a clinical setting
(2021-10-01)
Article
Open AccessExposure levels to staff in interventional radiology (IR) may be significant and appropriate assessment of radiation doses is needed. Issues regarding measurements using physical dosemeters in the clinical environment still ...
