Impact of Ceiling Suspended Shield Size on Primary Operator Radiation Dose During Coronary Angiography and Intervention

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Reducing radiation exposure to staff performing coronary angiography and intervention is an occupational health and safety priority for hospitals. We demonstrate that a larger lead acrylic shield, with lead rubber pleats on the lower edge will reduce radiation exposure to the cardiologist performing the procedure by approximately 40%. We recommend that

Standardised Request and Contrast Consent Forms to Enhance Clinical Learning in Radiography Education

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study developed standardised Medical Imaging Suite (MIS) request and contrast consent forms, modelled on real‐world documentation, to enhance student learning in diagnostic radiography education. By analysing forms from n = 25 medical imaging providers, key fields were identified and incorporated into authentic teaching resources, intended for use
