Radiation dose management

Establishing an effective radiation dose management program requires a change in organizational culture, as well as tools and collaboration. Elements such as imaging protocol harmonization across the institution, data recording and analysis, patient education on radiation awareness, and a common set of expectations regarding departmental safety are key to success.

Measuring dose is just the beginning. How you use that data to create a structured, sustainable safety culture is where DoseWise excels.

See how real-time radiation insight led to changed habits at Liverpool hospital

“DoseAware has provided a lot of information that's reassuring for new cardiologists that are coming through because they are more and more conscious of radiation risks”.

Chris Abell – Superintendent Radiographer at the Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital

“DoseAware has really changed our practice and I think, has helped reduce our radiation exposure both to myself, the rest of the staff in the lab, and the patients”.

Clare Appleby – Consultant Cardiologist at the Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital

“I love using the DoseAware for everything. We will use it for putting it around the room to see which areas of the room are better for standing. Or monitoring the actual patient to see which angles are giving more or less dose - live basically”.

Craig Lamb – Radiographer at the Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital

Are you ready for Euratom compliance?

In 2013, Euratom issued Council Directive 2013/59/Euratom, which lays down basic safety standards for protection against the dangers arising from exposure to ionizing radiation. This new directive supersedes previous directives and significantly impacts radiology departments across Europe.

The standards defined in Council Directive 2013/59/Euratom are based on recommendations from ICRP and are comparable to the IAEA (International) basic safety standards for radiation safety. To be in compliance, your institution must be ready to meet these new standards by 6 February, 2018.
