Impact of the Ceiling-Mounted Radiation Shielding Position on the Physician’s Dose from Scatter Radiation during Interventional Procedures by Lucie Sukupova, Ondrej Hlavacek, Daniel Vedlich

“…Measurements were performed in different projections and with different positions of the ceiling-mounted shielding: without shielding; shielding closest to the patient; and shielding closest to the physician performing the procedure. The protection provided by the shielding was assessed for cardiology when the femoral access is used and for radiology when the physician performs the procedure in the abdominal area. …”
