Is this dose within acceptable limits?

this isn’t a question about whether I am going to die from a CT scan I swear I am a student in the healthcare field and shadowed in the cath lab. A diagnostic cath was done and an aortic balloon pump was placed. The patient dose was recorded at 598 mGy. To me, this seemed really high, however I am not a radiology or rad tech student so I am not qualified to say. I guess I’m just wondering if this is a normal patient dose for this procedure

AI for radiology - A survey

Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
