This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between the type of lead apron and radiation exposure to the backs of physicians and nurses while using C-arm fluoroscopy. We compared radiation exposure to the back in the three groups: no lead apron (group C), front coverage type (group F) and wrap-around type (group W). The other wrap-around type apron was put on the bed instead of on a patient. We ran C-arm fluoroscopy 40 times for each measurement. We collected the air kerma (AK), exposure time (ET) and effective dose (ED) of the bedside table, upper part and lower part of apron. We measured these variables 30 times for each location. In group F, ED of the upper part was the highest (p\u00a0&amp;lt;\u00a00.001). ED of the lower part in group C and F was higher than that in group W (p\u00a0=\u00a00.012). The radiation exposure with a front coverage type apron is higher than that of the wrap-around type and even no apron at the neck or thyroid. For reducing radiation exposure to the back of physician or nurse, the wrap-around type apron is recommended. This type of apron can reduce radiation to the back when the physician turns away from the patient or C-arm fluoroscopy.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/rpd\/ncab044","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,5]],"date-time":"2021-03-05T20:13:54Z","timestamp":1614975234000},"page":"185-189","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["RADIATION EXPOSURE TO THE BACK WITH DIFFERENT TYPES OF APRONS"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"193","author":[{"given":"Seung Wan","family":"Hong","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, Konkuk University School of Medicine, Seoul, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tae Won","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, Konkuk University School of Medicine, Seoul, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jae Hun","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, Konkuk University School of Medicine, Seoul, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021070812452457100_ref1","article-title":"Dose limits to the lens of the eye: International Basic Safety Standards and related guidance"},{"key":"2021070812452457100_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"S26","DOI":"10.1016\/j.injury.2017.04.023","article-title":"Radiation exposure during intramedullary nailing","volume":"1","author":"Hak","year":"2017","journal-title":"Injury.
