A total of 16 staffs members were working in interventional cardiology during 1\u00a0year at a tertiary hospital. The occupational dose was measured using calibrated thermo-luminescent dosemeters (TLD-100, LiF:Mg,Ti). The overall mean and range of the annual Hp(10) and Hp(0.07) (mSv) for cardiologists were 3.7 (0.13\u201314.5) and 3.2 (0.21\u201314.7), respectively. Cardiologists were frequently exposed to higher doses compared with nurses and technologists. The exposure showed wide variations, which depend on occupation and workload. Staff is adhered to radiation protection guidelines regarding shielding the trunk, thyroid shield, thus appropriately protected. Lens dose measurement is recommended to ensure that dose limit is not exceeded.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/rpd\/ncab107","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,22]],"date-time":"2021-06-22T07:08:38Z","timestamp":1624345718000},"page":"314-318","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["EVALUATION OF ANNUAL RADIATION EXPOSURE OF STAFF IN A CARDIAC CATHETERIZATION DEPARTMENT IN SAUDI ARABIA"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"195","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0830-4706","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"A","family":"Sulieman","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology and Medical Imaging, Prince Sattam bin Abdulaziz University, PO Box 422, Alkharj 11942, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"F","family":"Mayhoub","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedical Physics, King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center, PO Box 3354, Riyadh 11211, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"H Salah","family":"Ibrahim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"INAYA Medical Collage, Nuclear Medicine Department, PO Box 271 880 Riyadh 13541, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"H","family":"Omer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Basic Sciences Deanship of Preparatory Year and Supporting Studies, Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University, PO Box 1982, Dammam 34212, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M","family":"Alkhorayef","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiological Sciences, College of Applied Medical Sciences, King Saud University, PO Box 10219, Riyadh 11433, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia"},{"name":"Centre for Nuclear and Radiation Physics, Department of Physics, University of Surrey, Guildford GU2 7XH, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7434-1663","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fouad A","family":"Abolaban","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Nuclear Engineering Department, Faculty of Engineering, King Abdulaziz University, PO Box 80221, Jeddah 21589, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"H","family":"Al-Mohammed","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Nuclear Engineering Department, Faculty of Engineering, King Abdulaziz University, PO Box 80221, Jeddah 21589, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3772-294X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"M U","family":"Khandaker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiological Sciences, College of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, Princess Nourah Bint Abdulrahman University, PO Box 84428, Riyadh 11671, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"D A","family":"Bradley","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiological Sciences, College of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, Princess Nourah Bint Abdulrahman University, PO Box 84428, Riyadh 11671, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia"},{"name":"Centre for Applied Physics and Radiation Technologies, School of Engineering and Technology, Sunway University. 5, Jalan Universiti, Bandar Sunway, 47500, Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,16]]},"reference":[{"issue":"10","key":"2021101213361772900_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"798","DOI":"10.1136\/heartjnl-2017-312493","article-title":"Using radiation safely in cardiology: what imagers need to know","volume":"105","author":"Williams","year":"2019","journal-title":"Heart"},{"issue":"1","key":"2021101213361772900_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"55","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ehj.2016.10.001","article-title":"Radiation exposure, the forgotten enemy: toward implementation of national safety program","volume":"69","author":"Ahmed","year":"2017","journal-title":"Egypt.
