RADIATION PROTECTION DOSIMETRY(2019)
摘要
Preliminary studies on effective and eye lens doses of six Radiologists, four Cardiologists have been conducted for a period of 3 months. Electronic dosemeters positioned under and over lead apron of staff were used for the dosimetry. The estimated effective dose per month to Cardiologist and Radiologist were 0.01-0.07 mSv and 0.03-0.14 mSv, respectively. The estimated eye lens doses per month to Cardiologists and Radiologists were also 0.15-0.30 mSv and 0.53-3.39 mSv, respectively. The effective doses per month to staff were below the ICRP acceptable limit of 1.67 mSv/month but the upper limit of the range of estimated eye lens dose exceeded the ICRP acceptable limit by a factor of 2. Regular use of protective goggles and consistent eye lens dose monitoring is encouraged at the hospital for dose optimization.
