Abstract

Since 2013, the adoption of Directive 2013/59/EURATOM in the European Union has mandated emergency plans for facilities housing radiology equipment, including radiology and dental clinics, and required periodical testing of these plans. However, the testing procedures have sparked widespread confusion regarding the definition of radiological emergencies in clinical settings. A potential solution lies in broadening the scope to include 'radiological events', covering accidents, incidents or other type of unjustified exposures. Utilizing realistic scenarios can enhance the radiological protection system within institutions, specifically addressing situations that might lead to unwanted patient exposure.

传统放射学和牙科放射学放射事件检测说明。
自 2013 年起,欧盟通过了第 2013/59/EURATOM 号指令,强制要求包括放射科和牙科诊所在内的放射设备所在设施制定应急计划,并要求对这些计划进行定期检测。然而,测试程序引发了对临床环境中放射紧急情况定义的广泛混淆。潜在的解决方案是扩大范围,将 "放射事件 "包括在内,涵盖意外事故、事件或其他类型的不合理照射。利用现实场景可以加强机构内的放射防护系统,特别是解决可能导致患者受到不必要照射的情况。

期刊介绍: Journal of Radiological Protection publishes articles on all aspects of radiological protection, including non-ionising as well as ionising radiations. Fields of interest range from research, development and theory to operational matters, education and training. The very wide spectrum of its topics includes: dosimetry, instrument development, specialized measuring techniques, epidemiology, biological effects (in vivo and in vitro) and risk and environmental impact assessments. The journal encourages publication of data and code as well as results.
