Résumé
interventional radiology workers are potentially exposed to high levels of ionizing radiation, therefore preventive dose estimation is mandatory for the correct risk classification of staff. Effective dose (ED) is a radiation protection quantity strictly related to the secondary air kerma ( radiological units ( when no CFs were applied, the measured when appropriate CF are applied, the preventive ED estimation from the median DAP value seems to be more conservative and easier to obtain with respect to the one obtained from the FT value. Further measurements should be performed with a personal dosimeter during routine activities to assess the proper
