Dosimetry assessment for mobile c-arm: use of badge attached to the equipment
The use of fluoroscopy equipment in surgical procedures exposes professionals to ionizing radiation. An important safety aspect is the correct use of personal protective equipment and monitoring of dose levels in workers. In Brazil, the Resolution of the

Ambient dose equivalent measurement with a CsI(Tl) based electronic personal dosimeter
In this manuscript, we present a method for the direct calculation of an ambient dose equivalent (H*(10)) for the external gamma-ray exposure with an energy range of 40 keV to 2 MeV in an electronic personal dosimeter (EPD).
