Fast and accurate peak skin dose estimation method for interventional fluoroscopy patients
Our method rapidly and accurately calculates PSD and skin dose distribution, making it a useful tool for research and clinical applications. The planned integration of our method into the National Cancer Institute Dosimetry System for Radiography and Fluoroscopy (NCIRF) will enhance accessibility. Additionally, future upgrades of NCIRF will include a comprehensive phantom library and pregnant phantoms that will enable our method to account for patient-specific body shapes, further improving the accuracy and personalization in dose assessments.
