PURPOSE To estimate radiation dose and associated risks after fluoroscopically guided percutaneous transhepatic biliary (PTB) drainage and stent implantation procedures. MATERIALS AND METHODS Organ and effective doses, normalized to dose-area product (DAP), were estimated for PTB procedures with use of a Monte Carlo transport code and an adult mathematical phantom. Exposure parameters from 51 consecutive patients were used to determine average examination parameters for biliary drainage and…

Radiation dose and risk from fluoroscopically guided percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stenting in the abdominal region
TLDR
The radiation-induced cancer risk may be considerable for younger individuals undergoing transluminal angioplasty with stent placement, and the patient dose from any technique and X-ray unit can be easily calculated for iliac and renal PTA/stenting sessions.
Occupational radiation exposure from fluoroscopically guided percutaneous transhepatic biliary procedures.
TLDR
Body level-specific normalized air-kerma distributions from commonly used projections in PTB procedures may be useful to accurately quantify dose, maximum workloads, and possible radiogenic risks delivered to medical personnel working in the interventional radiology laboratory.
Calculation of conversion factors for effective dose for various interventional radiology procedures.
TLDR
Values of E/DAP conversion factors were derived for each procedure from a comprehensive analysis of projection and dosimetric data: they could provide a good evaluation for the stochastic effects.
Conversion factors for effective dose and organ doses with the air kerma area product in patients undergoing percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage and trans arterial chemoembolization.

Non-vascular interventional procedures: effective dose to patient and equivalent dose to abdominal organs by means of DICOM images and Monte Carlo simulation.
TLDR
This study evaluates X-ray exposure in patient undergoing abdominal extra-vascular interventional procedures by means of Digital Imaging and COmmunications in Medicine (DICOM) image headers and Monte Carlo simulation and conversion coefficients that relate equivalent doses to measurable quantities, such as DAP were obtained.
Patient radiation dose in percutaneous biliary interventions: recommendations for DRLs on the basis of a multicentre study
TLDR
DAPs and FTs in percutaneous biliary interventions showed substantial variations depending on the centre and the type of PBI, which can be reduced when national diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) are kept in mind.

Patient Radiation Risk in Interventional Cardiology
TLDR
This study estimated radiation risks from typical cardiac procedures using Monte Carlo simulations and calculated equivalent organ doses and effective doses using the recommendations in ICRP Publications 60 and 103.
Radiological Protection in Fluoroscopically Guided Procedures Performed Outside the Imaging Department
X radiation dosimetry in invasive cardiovascular studies
TLDR
It was possible to conclude that thermoluminescent dosimetry, despite intrinsic operational difficulties, allows determining the absorbed dose distribution on the surface skin with smaller uncertainties.

A study of patient radiation doses in interventional radiological procedures.
TLDR
It was found that among commonly-performed procedures, those that are categorized as therapeutic do not necessarily present a statistically significant greater radiation risk than those which are diagnostic.
Accurate Assessment of Patient Effective Radiation Dose and Associated Detriment Risk From Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation Procedures
TLDR
The aim of the present study was to accurately establish RF ablation radiation risk levels and to provide means for accurate patient risk estimation from studies performed in any electrophysiology laboratory.
Estimation of effective dose in some digital angiographic and interventional procedures.
TLDR
This study provides dose data for some digital angiographic and interventional procedures and calculates effective dose values per minute of fluoroscopy and per radiography film for five types of procedures.
Adult patient doses in interventional neuroradiology.
TLDR
Radiation doses to 149 adult patients who underwent interventional neuroradiologic procedures are investigated, showing that on average, 66% of the patient exposure comes from radiographic imaging (DSA), and the corresponding effective doses are noticeably higher than those normally encountered in diagnostic radiology.
Entrance skin dose estimates derived from dose-area product measurements in interventional radiological procedures.
TLDR
Patient skin doses resulting from interventional radiological procedures have the potential to exceed threshold doses for deterministic effects such as erythema and epilation and are estimated from the measured dose-area product.
Patient dose values in interventional radiology.
TLDR
Dose-area product and, when feasible, surface dose using thermoluminescent dosimetry chips were measured and both approaches are discussed, as well as their potential use in patient protection programmes.

TLDR
The value of DAP is demonstrated as a measure of radiologist workload in respect of its significance in terms of staff dose and should provide an indicator of those procedures which are associated with particularly high radiation exposures to staff.
PATIENT EFFECTIVE RADIATION DOSE AND ASSOCIATED RISK FROM TRANSMISSION SCANS USING 153GD LINE SOURCES IN CARDIAC SPECT STUDIES
TLDR
Radiation exposure may not be considered as a limiting factor for the clinical application of attenuation correction methods based on transmission measurements in cardiac SPECT studies, because it is less than 10−3.

Effective doses in angiography and interventional radiology: calculation of conversion coefficients for angiography of the lower limbs.
TLDR
The influence of radiation spectrum (kVp + filtration) is large and that the effect of field position and size is moderate, except when differences are observed in respect of the gonads, when the variation in conversion coefficients is large.
