Lead gowns on patient causing rebound within the gown?

I’ve heard theories that using a lead gown for a pregnant patient will increase their dose as the x-rays will rebound of the lead and scatter back inwards. Is there any research proving this? I know shielding isn’t recommended in general due to risk of artefact, but as a psychological comfort is it in fact doing more damage?

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/
