Occupational Exposure to Ionizing Radiation in Interventional Fluoroscopy:
Severity of Adverse Effects of a Growing Health Problem

scientific publications on these topics. In 2015, there were approximately 45 scientific manuscripts (studies, surveys, and editorials) on occupational hazards or methods to reduce operator exposure to scatter radiation, more than double the number published in 2014.
This supplement summarizes new clinical data on the health consequences of chronic radiation exposure, presents findings from new physician surveys on the musculoskeletal impact of PPE, and provides an overview of various methods being investigated to enhance radiation protection for interventionalists.
