Effective dose of a skeletal survey in infants using digital radiography was estimated to be 0.2 mSv using Monte Carlo simulation. Radiation risk from this procedure is, therefore, low. Radiation concern should not be an overriding factor when deciding whether skeletal survey is needed in cases of possible physical abuse.
使用蒙特卡罗模拟估计数字放射摄影在婴儿中的骨骼检查的有效剂量为 0.2 毫希沃特。因此,该程序的辐射风险较低。在决定是否需要进行骨骼检查以确定是否存在身体虐待的情况下,辐射问题不应成为主要考虑因素。
