PURPOSE To determine values of the effective dose equivalent, HE, for patients undergoing
diagnostic cerebral angiography and compare these values with radiation doses received …

Radiation dosimetry measurements on angiographer, X-ray technician and patient were
performed during 18 femerocerebral angiograms. Lithium fluoride (LiF) thermoluminescent …

We investigated radiation doses to 149 adult patients who underwent interventional
neuroradiologic procedures, consisting of 132 patients who had diagnostic imaging …

One might dismiss the article in this issue by Heiserman et al (1) on neurologic
complications of cerebral angiography by arguing that it brings nothing new to the medical …

The relation between radiation dose in neurologic computed tomography scanning and
image quality is described. Three different sets of images were obtained at varying …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: In 2011, the International Commission on Radiologic
Protection established an absorbed-dose threshold to the brain of 0.5 Gy as likely to …

PURPOSE: To assess the clinical performance and usefulness of an on-line patient
exposure meter installed on a neuroradiologic biplane imaging system. MATERIALS AND …

Radiologists are taught that CT with low radiation doses is morally and ethically justified
provided that this technique produces images adequate for diagnostic purposes. CT …

We have carried out basic investigations of an intravenous minimum dose bolus (MinDB)
injection method for cerebral computed angiotomography by comparing blood iodine …

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has recommended the monitoring of radiation skin
