摘要: Background Intramedullary nailing under fluoroscopic guidance is a common operation. We studied the intraoperative radiation dose received by both patient and personnel. Patients methods 25 intramedullary procedures of tibia were studied. All patients suffered from tibial fractures treated using Grosse-Kempf nail, with free-hand technique for fixation distal screws, guidance. The exposure, at selected positions, was recorded an ion chamber, while area product (DAP) measured DAP meter, attached to tube head. Thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) used derive occupational personnel, also monitor surface on gonads some patients. Results mean operation time 101 (48–240) min, 72 seconds value 75 cGy·cm2. less than 8.8 mGy during any procedure, an...
