Résumé
Increased x-ray exposure to physicians' eye lenses during radiology procedures is a significant concern. In this study, x-ray exposure to the eye was measured using an anthropomorphic head phantom, with and without radiation-protective devices, to examine the dose of x-ray radiation that physicians are exposed to during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). X-ray exposure of the eye was measured using novel dedicated direct eye lens dosimeters that could specifically measure
