Abstract

Patient skin doses were measured using Kodak EDR2 film for 20 coronary angiography (CA) and 32 percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) procedures. For CA, all skin doses were well below 1 Gy. However, 23% of PTCA patients received skin doses of 1 Gy or more. Dose-area product (DAP) was also recorded and was found to be an inadequate indicator of maximum skin dose. Practical compliance with ICRP recommendations requires a robust method for skin dosimetry that is more accurate than DAP and is applicable over a wider dose range than EDR2 film.

摘要

使用柯达EDR2胶片测量了20例冠状动脉造影（CA）和32例经皮腔内冠状动脉成形术（PTCA）患者的皮肤剂量。对于CA，所有皮肤剂量均远低于1 Gy。然而，23%的PTCA患者接受的皮肤剂量达到或超过1 Gy。还记录了剂量面积乘积（DAP），发现它作为最大皮肤剂量的指标并不充分。要切实遵守国际辐射防护委员会（ICRP）的建议，需要一种比DAP更准确、且比EDR2胶片适用剂量范围更广的强大皮肤剂量测定方法。
