Greek Atomic Energy Commission's Department of Licensing and Inspections conducted a national survey for the establishment of nuclear medicine (NM) dose reference levels (DRLs) for adult patients, in Greece. The administered activities (AAs) (MBq) were collected from 120 NM departments (88 % of total), during on-site inspections for licensing purposes. Factors influencing the image quality were also investigated. The established national DRLs represent the AA value corresponding to the 75th percentile of the AA frequency distributions. In their majority, national DRLs and average AAs are comparable with the ones published in the international literature. In the light of new technologies, there might be potential for reducing the higher values of AAs, in co-operation with the nuclear medicine experts.
希腊原子能委员会许可与检查部在希腊开展了一项全国性调查，以确定成年患者核医学（NM）剂量参考水平（DRL）。在为发放许可证而进行的现场检查期间，从120个核医学科室（占总数的88%）收集了给药活度（AA）（MBq）。还对影响图像质量的因素进行了调查。既定的国家DRL代表了与AA频率分布第75百分位数相对应的AA值。在大多数情况下，国家DRL和平均AA与国际文献中公布的数值相当。鉴于新技术的出现，与核医学专家合作，有可能降低较高的AA值。
