Real-time measurement of radiation exposure in interventional radiologists during CT-guided intrathecal injections of nusinersen.
Purpose: Some patients with spinal muscular atrophy and scoliosis require CT guidance during injections of nusinersen. The radiation applied to the operator in such procedures becomes an important issue in terms of staff health and safety. The aim of the study was to assess the operator's radiation exposure during CT-guided nusinersen injections in patients with spinal muscular atrophy and scoliosis.
Methods: Consecutive 40 CT-guided nusinersen injections were analyzed in terms of operator's radiation exposure measured in real time.
Results: The median radiation dose measured under the physician's lead apron and patient dose in terms of DLP was 0.20 µSv and 31.90 mGy*cm respectively. The radiation doses were significantly higher (p = 0.047) in patients with spinal instrumentation.
Conclusion: The results show that CT-guided nusinersen injection is a relatively safe procedure in terms of operator's radiation exposure. This can allow for interventional radiologists to perform more procedures without exceeding their annual dose limit.
期刊介绍:
Neuroradiology aims to provide state-of-the-art medical and scientific information in the fields of Neuroradiology, Neurosciences, Neurology, Psychiatry, Neurosurgery, and related medical specialities. Neuroradiology as the official Journal of the European Society of Neuroradiology receives submissions from all parts of the world and publishes peer-reviewed original research, comprehensive reviews, educational papers, opinion papers, and short reports on exceptional clinical observations and new technical developments in the field of Neuroimaging and Neurointervention. The journal has subsections for Diagnostic and Interventional Neuroradiology, Advanced Neuroimaging, Paediatric Neuroradiology, Head-Neck-ENT Radiology, Spine Neuroradiology, and for submissions from Japan. Neuroradiology aims to provide new knowledge about and insights into the function and pathology of the human nervous system that may help to better diagnose and treat nervous system diseases. Neuroradiology is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and follows the COPE core practices. Neuroradiology prefers articles that are free of bias, self-critical regarding limitations, transparent and clear in describing study participants, methods, and statistics, and short in presenting results. Before peer-review all submissions are automatically checked by iThenticate to assess for potential overlap in prior publication.
