mSv in 1 Minute of Flouro?

By

I’ve unfortunately had some bad medical luck this year, which has required me to get some diagnostic imaging done. This has triggered me to start keeping up with how much radiation I’ve been exposed to, because I’ve had quite a bit in the past as a patient. But also because I work as a RN in the OR. Although I always wear lead I’m exposed to quite a bit there as well.

I’m trying to figure out a rough estimate for the mSv dose per minute of flouro time. Is there any general rates for this? And sources? I’ve tried doing some research but the answers vary wildly. Thanks!

AI for radiology - A survey

By
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/
