Although the wide acceptance of interventional radiology (IVR) procedures has led to increasing numbers of interventions being performed, the radiation doses from IVR are higher. Increasing numbers of case reports of patient radiation injury resulting from IVR are being published. Therefore, radiation protection during IVR poses a very important problem. To protect against radiation injury, the evaluation of radiation dose is essential. The radiation dose must be evaluated for each IVR x-ray machine and each laboratory, because it varies greatly. To obtain this information easily, and to ensure practical use of the radiation information, good relationships between interventionists and medical physicists are essential.
虽然介入放射学(IVR)技术的广泛应用导致了越来越多的介入操作,但 IVR 的辐射剂量也随之增加。越来越多的因 IVR 导致的患者辐射损伤的病例报告被发表。因此,IVR 中的辐射防护是一个非常重要的问题。为了防止辐射损伤,评估辐射剂量是必不可少的。必须对每台 IVR X 射线机和每个实验室进行辐射剂量评估,因为它的差异非常大。为了方便地获取这些信息,并确保辐射信息的实际应用,介入放射医师和医学物理学家之间必须建立良好的关系。
