Twenty-four patients (41%) underwent transcatheter patent ductus arteriosus closure with anti-scatter grids, while 34 (59%) underwent the procedure without using anti-scatter grids. At the time of catheterization, the median age, corrected age, and weight were 4.3 weeks (3.4\u20136), 29 weeks (28.1\u201330.9), and 1200g (1000-1600), respectively. Total radiation exposures for the dose area product and air kerma were 2.73 \u00b5Gy.m<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup> (1.65\u20134.16), and 1.63 mGy (1.15\u20132.58), respectively. Radiation doses were higher in the group in whom the anti-scatter grids were utilized with dose area product of 3.33 \u00b5Gy.m<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup> (2.39\u20135.43) and air kerma of 2.27 mGy (1.41\u20133.06) versus 1.86 \u00b5Gy.m<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup> (1.46\u20133.60) and air kerma of 1.40 mGy (1.08\u20131.92).
