Interventional radiography and mortality risks in U.S. radiologic technologists [PDF]
Pediatric Radiology, 2006 With the exponential increase in minimally invasive fluoroscopically guided interventional radiologic procedures, concern has increased about the health effects on staff and patients of radiation exposure from these procedures. There has been no systematic epidemiologic investigation to quantify serious disease risks or mortality. To quantify all-cause,
