Description | Die stralingswerker behoort ioniserende bestraling aan die pasiënt en personeel te alle tye tot dieminimum te beperk deur die toepassing van die ALARA- beginsel. Die doel van die studie was omdie ioniserende stralingsvlakkke rondom die teatertafel aan weerskante van die C-Arm te bepaalom vas te stel of die bestralingsdosis tydens rugpynbehandelings binne die bestralingslimiete is soos bepaal deur die International Commission of Radiological Protection (ICRP). The duty of a radiographer in theatre is to be prudent to minimise radiation exposure whenever possible and thus to apply the ‘As-Low-As-Reasonably Achievable’ (ALARA) principle to ensure the lowest possible radiation dose to the patient and staff. The aim of the study is to determine low-dose radiation working areas in theatres and to propose protocols during fluoroscopy to apply the ALARA principle. | |
