Outline of Final Research Achievements

Interventional radiology has been established as a treatment for cerebrovascular disease as minimally invasive treatment, but X - ray exposure is a problem. In order to reduce this, it is necessary to manage with accurate measurement and support by patient feedback. In this research, ①we developed a prototype of a real-time dosimeter using photodiodes ② we developed storage of report on actual measurement values of skin dose by the glass dosimeter that we had been doing based on paper base in DICOM server in the hospital with the dose information report from medical equipments.③ We planned a patient support system by a support team based on multiple occupations including doctors, radiologists, and nurses.
