The main objective of WP1 the ORAMED (Optimization RAdiation protection for MEDical staff) project is to obtain a set standardised data on extremity and eye lens doses staff in interventional radiology (IR) cardiology (IC) optimise protection. A coordinated measurement program different hospitals Europe will help towards this direction. This study aims at analysing first results campaign performed IR IC procedures 34 European hospitals. highest were found pacemakers, renal angioplasties...
Patient doses for a few common fluoroscopy-guided procedures in interventional radiology (IR) (excluding cardiology) were collected from radiological departments 13 European countries. The major aim was to evaluate patient the basis of reference levels. In total, data 20 about 1300 patients collected. There many-fold variations number IR equipment and per population, entrance dose rates, (total area product or DAP, fluoroscopy time frames). no clear correlation between total DAP rate, time,...
Some medical applications are associated with high doses to the extremities of staff exposed ionising radiation. At workplaces in nuclear medicine, interventional radiology, cardiology and brachytherapy, can be limiting organs as far regulatory dose limits for workers concerned. However, although need routine extremity monitoring is clear these applications, no data about status reported by different countries was collected analysed so far, at least a European level. In this article, from...
As a result of the gamma radiation emitted by radioactive elements (e.g. 99mTc and 131I) used in nuclear medicine laboratories for diagnostic therapeutic purposes, workers are exposed to whole-body doses. These doses arc usually measured using individual film dosemeters. Lead or lead glass shields during handling radioisotopes minimise received. Nevertheless, part job has be performed manually, hence hands more radiation. This paper presents results measuring equivalent dose employed five...
In most countries of European Union, legislation requires the determination total skin dose received by patients during interventional procedures in order to prevent deterministic damages. Various indicators like dose-area product (DAP), cumulative (CD) and entrance at patient plane (EFD) are used for dosimetry purposes clinical practice. This study aimed relating those with doses ascribed irradiated areas usually expressed terms local maximal (MSD). The was performed two different...
The deep resistivity structure was estimated along a 400-km profile in central Poland crossing the Malopolska Massif (MM), Lysogory Unit (LU), Trans-European Suture Zone (TESZ) and ending at East European Craton (EEC). Magnetotelluric transfer functions, corresponding to 20 sites, were supplemented by magnetovariational responses obtained geomagnetic observatories situated same tectonic units. Such combination made it possible extend initial period range, which is from fractions of second...

Quality control (QC) is becoming increasingly important in relation to the introduction of digital medical imaging systems using X rays. It was, therefore, decided organise and perform a trial on image quality physical measurements.

In present contribution, impact selected protocols presented. Medical Physics Bioengineering...
The progress made in radiological image processing and transmission is being widely applied new branches of medicine. increasing use interventional radiology research clinical practice means that groups workers are exposed to radiation need be covered by a system protection. Interventional requires the operator assisting personnel remain close patient; typically these procedures require placement hands within field. A hand dose monitoring was introduced Poland 2000. This uses ring badges...
We propose a new index of magnetic activity during three-hour intervals. The E is based on the energy spectra. As result fact that additive, we can use information from both horizontal components simultaneously. After calibration in relation to commonly used K index, made some numerical tests comparing indices. showed values indices are similar (differences greater than ±1 occurred only 0.1 per cent cases). also calculation correlation with magnetospheric parameters. seems correlate slightly...
