English to Spanish: Occupational exposure from common fluoroscopic projections used in Orthopaedic Surgery General field: Medical Detailed field: Medical: Instruments
Source text - English Background:Personnel assisting in or performing fluoroscopically guided procedures may be exposed to high doses of radiation. Accurate occupational dosimetric data for the orthopaedic theater staff are of paramount importance for practicing radiation safety.
METHODS:
Fluoroscopic screening was performed on an anthropomorphic phantom with use of four projections common in image-guided orthopaedic surgery. The simulated projections were categorized, according to the imaged anatomic area and the beam orientation, as (1) hip joint posterior-anterior, (2) hip joint lateral cross-table 45 degrees, (3) lumbar spine anterior-posterior, and (4) lumbar spine lateral 90 degrees. The scattered air kerma rate was measured on a grid surrounding the operating table. For each grid point, the effective dose, eye lens dose, and face skin dose values, normalized over the tube dose area product, were derived. For the effective dose calculations, three radiation protection conditions were considered: (1) with the exposed personnel using no protection measures, (2) with the exposed personnel wearing a 0.5-mm lead-equivalent protective apron, and (3) with the exposed personnel wearing both an apron and a thyroid collar. Maximum permissible workloads for typical hip, spine, and kyphoplasty procedures were derived on the basis of compliance with effective dose, eye lens dose, and skin dose limits.
RESULTS:
We found that the effective dose, eye lens dose, and face skin dose to an orthopaedic surgeon wearing a 0.5-mm lead-equivalent apron will not exceed the corresponding limits if the dose area product of the fluoroscopically guided procedure is
Translation - Spanish Antecedentes: El personal que asiste o desarrolla procedimientos guiados por fluoroscopía, puede estar expuesto a altas dosis de radiación.
Datos dosimétricos precisos para el personal de la sala de cirugías ortopédicas, son de suma importancia para la seguridad radiológica.
Métodos: La detección fluoroscópica fue realizada en un maniquí antropomórfico, usando cuatro proyecciones comúnmente utilizadas en la cirugía ortopédica guiada por imagen.
Las proyecciones estimuladas fueron categorizadas, dependiendo del área anatómica y la orientación del haz de luz, como (1) articulación posterior-anterior de la cadera, (2) articulación lateral de la cadera en mesa en cruz a 45º, (3) espina lumbar anterior-posterior, (4) espina lumbar lateral 90º.
La cantidad de 1kerma en aire fue medida con una rejilla que rodeaba la mesa de operaciones. Para cada punto de la cuadrícula, la dosis eficaz, la dosis en la lente del ojo, y los valores de dosis (cantidad) en la piel de la cara, normalizada sobre el producto dosis-área, fueron calculadas. Para el cálculo de dosis efectivas, tres situaciones de protección para la radiación fueron consideradas: (1) con el personal expuesto sin medidas de protección, (2) con el personal expuesto, usando delantal protectivo con una equivalencia adecuada de plomo de 0.5 mm, y (3) el personal usando tanto el delantal como un protector de tiroides.
La cantidad máxima de trabajo permitida para procedimientos típicos de cadera, columna y cifoplastía, se obtuvieron basándose en el cumplimiento de la dosis eficaz, dosis en el lente del ojo, y límites de la dosis en la piel.
Resultados: Encontramos que la dosis eficaz, la dosis en el lente del ojo, y la dosis en la piel de la cara de un cirujano ortopédico usando delantal protector de plomo-equivalente de 0.5 mm no excede los límites correspondientes si el producto dosis-área del proceso con guía fluoroscópica es
