Assessment of eye lens doses in interventional radiology: A simulation in laboratory conditions
Original language description
As workers in interventional radiology belong to one of the most occupationally exposed groups, methods for sufficiently accurate quantification of their external exposure are sought. The objective of our experiment was to investigate relations between eye lens dose and Hp(10), Hp(3) or Hp(0.07) values measured with a conventional whole-body personal thermoluminescent dosemeter (TLD). Conditions of occupational exposure during common interventional procedures were simulated in laboratory. An anthropomorphic phantom represented a physician. The TLDs were fixed to the phantom in different locations that are common for purposes personal dosimetry. In order to monitor the dose at the eye lens level during the exposures, a special thermoluminescent eye dosemeter was fixed to the phantom’s temple. Correlations between doses measured with the whole-body and the eye dosemeters were found. There are indications that personnel in interventional radiology do not need to be unconditionally equipped with additional eye dosemeters, especially if an appropriate whole-body dosimetry system is already put into practice.
