Abstract

In response to the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP), which lowered the lens equivalent dose limit, Japan lowered the lens dose limit from 150 mSv/year to 100 mSv/5 years and 50 mSv/year, with this new rule taking effect on April 1, 2021. DOSIRIS® is a dosimeter that can accurately measure lens dose. Herein, we investigated lens dose in interventional cardiology physicians one year before and after the reduction of the lens dose limit using a neck dosimeter and lens dosimeter measurements. With an increase in the number of cases, both personal dose equivalent at 0.07 mm [Hp(0.07), neck dosimeter] and personal dose equivalent at 3 mm depth [Hp(3), lens dosimeter] increased for most of the physicians. The Hp(3) of the lens considering the shielding effect of the Pb glasses using lens dosimeter exceeded 20 mSv/year for two of the 14 physicians. Protection from radiation dose will become even more important in the future, as these two physicians may experience radiation dose exceeding 100 mSv/5 years. The average dose per procedure increased, but not significantly. There was a strong correlation between the neck dosimeter and lens dosimeter scores, although there was no significant change before and after the lens dose limit was lowered. This correlation was particularly strong for physicians who primarily treated patients. As such, it is possible to infer accurate lens doses from neck doses in physicians who primarily perform diagnostics. However, it is desirable to use a dosimeter that can directly measure Hp(3) because of the high lens dose., (© 2024 Society for Radiological Protection.

Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to optimize radiopharmaceutical dosage in single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) nuclear medicine. Therefore, we examined a variable dose (VD) method using body weight as an index in resting myocardial scintigraphy using a 99m Technetium ( 99m Tc) preparation., Methods: In this study, we compared the VD method with the fixed dose (FD) method without a variable by body weight. There were 50 patients using the VD method and 50 patients using the FD method. For the VD method, we set the target average count (counts/pixel) per SPECT view. Using the myocardial average count of the FD method, and the estimated intracorporeal radioactivity at the start of the examination, the dose of the VD method, which varies appropriately depending on the body weight, was calculated., Results: The VD method had less variation in myocardial counting and was closer to the target count than the FD method, and the median dosage decreased., Conclusion: The VD method suggested the possibility of obtaining a count independent of physique and stable image quality, reducing medical and occupational radiation exposure in resting myocardial blood flow scintigraphy.
