[Radiation risk for the child in urinary tract roentgendiagnostic (author's transl)]. 1980

H Vogel, and H Löhr, and F Wallbaum, and M A Lassrich

During one urogramm skin doses were measured between 0,1--0,9 Roentgen (R) in the radiation field. The testes dose was 6--41 mR. In mictioncysto-urethrography the skin dose was between 0,2 and 4,2 R/examination, and the testes dose 50--80 mR. The energy transferred to the body by the X-rays (integral dose) was 5,6--23 mJoule (mJ) per urogramm. The mean-body-dose (integral dose/bodyweight) was 1,3--0,6 mJ/kg per examination. The probability to induce a lethal disease (for example leukemia or malignoma) by this dose is approximately 1:50 000--1:500 000. The probability that exposure of the gonades induces mutations and thereby malformations in the following two generations is equally about 1:50 000--1:500 000.

D011829 Radiation Dosage The amount of radiation energy that is deposited in a unit mass of material, such as tissues of plants or animal. In RADIOTHERAPY, radiation dosage is expressed in gray units (Gy). In RADIOLOGIC HEALTH, the dosage is expressed by the product of absorbed dose (Gy) and quality factor (a function of linear energy transfer), and is called radiation dose equivalent in sievert units (Sv).
