Abstract
Patient skin doses resulting from interventional radiological procedures have the potential to exceed threshold doses for deterministic effects such as erythema and epilation. If the irradiation geometry is known, the entrance skin dose can be estimated from the measured dose-area product. For each of 10 non-coronary interventional procedures, a nominal geometry was identified. From a previous survey of patient dose-area products, the entrance...
