Background: Percutaneous endovascular revascularisation interventions are increasingly used in treatment of lower extremity artery disease and may expose patients to substantial radiation. Patients and methods: Dose-area product (DAP) was retrospectively analysed in 1063 consecutive interventions performed in adult patients with lower extremity artery disease in a single tertiary medical centre. Differences between procedure types, stratified according to anatomical region and arterial lesion complexity were evaluated. Results: Median DAP for diagnostic interventions was 35.6 (15.0\u201352.4) Gy cm2<\/jats:sup> in aorto-below-knee arteriography and 3.2 (2.0\u20134.5) Gy cm2<\/jats:sup> in ipsilateral femoral arteriography (p < 0.001). For angioplasty without stenting, median DAP was 53.4 (28.6\u201387.4) Gy cm2<\/jats:sup> for pelvic interventions vs. 5.9 (4.3\u20138.6) Gy cm2<\/jats:sup> for antegrade ipsilateral femoropopliteal interventions (p < 0.001). For stenting, median DAP was 54.9 (32.5\u201391.2) Gy cm2<\/jats:sup> for pelvic interventions vs. 8.3 (6.0\u201312.3) Gy cm2<\/jats:sup> for antegrade ipsilateral femoropopliteal interventions (p < 0.001). Inside the same anatomical region, diagnostic interventions were associated with significantly lower DAP than therapeutic interventions. Stenting vs no stenting increased DAP values only in antegrade ipsilateral femoropopliteal interventions (8.3 (6.0\u201312.3) vs 5.9 (4.3\u20138.6) Gy cm2<\/jats:sup> (p < 0.001). Arterial lesion complexity affected DAP values only in antegrade ipsilateral femoropopliteal therapeutic interventions. Conclusions: The most important factor influencing patients\u2019 radiation doses was the anatomical region. Pelvic interventions were associated with 6\u201311-times higher DAP values than femoropopliteal interventions with antegrade ipsilateral approach. Stenting and complexity of lesions increased DAP only in antegrade ipsilateral femoropopliteal interventions. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1024\/0301-1526\/a000744","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,16]],"date-time":"2018-10-16T08:39:12Z","timestamp":1539679152000},"page":"167-174","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Patients\u2019 radiation doses during percutaneous endovascular procedures in arteries of the lower limbs"],"prefix":"10.1024","volume":"48","author":[{"given":"Vinko","family":"Boc","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Vascular Diseases, University Medical Centre Ljubljana, Ljubljana, Slovenia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anja","family":"Boc","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Institute of Anatomy, University of Ljubljana, Ljubljana, Slovenia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Urban","family":"Zde\u0161ar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Occupational Safety, Ljubljana, Slovenia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ale\u0161","family":"Blinc","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Vascular Diseases, University Medical Centre Ljubljana, Ljubljana, Slovenia"},{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Department of Internal Medicine, University of Ljubljana, Ljubljana, Slovenia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"101","reference":[{"key":"c1","volume":"85","author":"ICRP","year":"2000","journal-title":"ICRP Publication"},{"key":"c2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ejvs.2015.01.014"},{"key":"c3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Struelens L, Bacher K & Zankl M.
