Research Abstract |
Although it is important to measure and record radiation dose to patient skin, no standardized measuring method is available to compare performance of digital subtraction angiography systems with those of other institutions. We developed a new bidirectional information exchange system using a web page and e-mail. Measurements are obtained using an original head phantom, and this system can alert the user that the radiation dose delivered using ordinary parameters differs from that of other institutions or DSA systems. To promote the use of this system, another action will be required.
