CT Safety Training - Radiation Protection Video

This CT safety training video introduces you to radiation protection.

City safety training. Radiation protection. Topics to be covered in this video include. Inside and outside of the radiation control area. Radiation warning lamps. And also dose notification and dose alerts. The radiation control area. The console is located outside the radiation control area. The patient can be observed through a lead glass window. The gantry and the patient table can be operated by remote control. If scans need to be released from inside the control area or if accompanying personnel need to remain there, safety measures must be taken. For example, lead aprons, protective walls, and so forth. Radiation block and warning lamps. You should check the radiation warning lamps on the gantry. The remote scan control and the control box. If present next to the doors of the examination room. You can check the proper function of the radiation warning lamps during the daily image quality tests. They must light up when radiation is generated. Dose alert and dose notification. Dose alert and dose notification are two dedicated safety features that inform you if a certain configured critical X-ray dose has been exceeded. Dose notification monitors the seat divil as well as the DLP for each scan range? It informs you if the configured notification values will be exceeded when performing the scan. Dose notification is displayed in the task flow control. The corresponding skin range and parameters display a yellow warning icon. If you are loading a scan for which one or both thresholds defined for the next scan ranges exceed the notification values, a dose notification dialog box opens. Ferdaus notification no threshold values are preconfigured. For each skin range, you can set a threshold for ctdi Vol using the dose notification ref ctdi parameter. You can also set a threshold for DLP in the dose notification ref EDLP parameter. Dose alert monitors the maximum of the accumulated ctdi Vol profile as well as the accumulated EDLP for all scan ranges of the current examination. It informs you if one of the specified alert values will be exceeded when performing the scan. Only users with the appropriate access privileges can confirm a dose alert. You are only allowed to confirm a dose alert and proceed with the examination. If your user account was assigned to the single dose alert administrator.
