Research summary
Reduction of Radiation Exposure Using Dynamic Trace Digital Angiography and Spot Fluoroscopy During Adrenal Venous Sampling
Limits: Very small two-group comparison (11 patients each) with no stated randomization or design details, in a single procedure type; operator dose is a dosimeter measurement, not a health outcome.
