Radiation safety around the world

I am a tech for 5 yesrs now and in my experience anywhere i go there is no radiation safety. Currently i am working in a tertiary hospital and our motto is worldclass within your reach, sadly we dont practice proper radiation safety like wearing gonadal thyroidal and abdominal shielding when performing procedures. Especially when we are performing portable xrays our doctors just request portable chest xray even tho the patient is ambulatory and worse the nurses doesnt want to transpo the ambulatory patients in our department. Sorry for my bad english. Hows your radiation safety in your country?!

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/
