Impact of new X-ray technology reducing patient and staff doses in interventional cardiology
The implementation of advanced X-ray technology has significantly reduced patient and occupational radiation exposure, all without compromising diagnostic accuracy. The effects on local diagnostic reference levels and the reduction in occupational doses should be regularly assessed to ensure that appropriate optimization actions are maintained.
