Monitoring of Fluoroscopy Time on the Dose Delivered to the Patient During Vertebral Cementoplasty Procedures

University Hospital, Strasbourg, France30 enrolled

Overview

The interventional radiology department of the Strasbourg University Hospital performs approximately 1,000 vertebral cementoplasties per year. This is one of the most practiced procedures in the department and therefore exposes the professionals in the room to significant annual cumulative doses of irradiation. The objective of the study is to evaluate the interest of continuous visual monitoring of the fluoroscopy time by the operator on the dose delivered to the patient during an interventional radiology procedure performed under fluoroscopic control. The chosen reference examination is a single-level vertebral cementoplasty, a standardized examination that is frequent enough to allow easy data collection
