[Occupational exposure to ionizing radiation in hospital. Analysis of individual risk by area and occupational category]. 2011
An analysis of occupational radiation exposure from 1988-2008 of 43 medical, 41 nurses and 4 nuclear medicine technicians of interventional cardiology, nuclear medicine, radiology-neuroradiology, urology and orthopedics has been performed. The mean annual effective dose to the whole body of all monitored workers are decreasing; one vascular surgeon, has exceeded 20 mSv/year. The doses received by physicians in the hands were up in radiology, urology and cardiology. Currently, interventional cardiology-hemodynamic is the most department-average exposure. Nurses are overall less exposed, the great exposure is in nuclear medicine, where the technicians are included.
