Report No. 012 - Evaluation of Radiation Exposure Levels in Cine Cardiac Catheterization Laboratories (1984)

Category: Reports

Cinefluorographic examinations are for widely employed cardiovascular examinations in which it is necessary to document dynamic physiological functions such as heart function and blood flow. Although it is a useful diagnostic tool, a cine examination has the potential of producing relatively high radiation exposure levels to both the patient and the medical personnel conducting the examination.
