Abstract
Japanese Diagnostic Reference Levels (DRLs) were released as "Japan DRLs 2015" from Japan Network for Research and Information on Medical Exposure (J-RIME) in June 2015. In "Japan DRLs 2015", DRLs in angiography and interventional procedures are set at a fluoroscopic dose rate of 20 mGy/min at the interventional reference point using a phantom. In order to achieve optimization with DRLs, then it need to be revised regularly. Therefore, we (research group to examine the effect of Japan DRLs 2015 and the necessity of additional items in angiography and vascular interventions) examined the effects of "Japan DRLs 2015" on angiography and interventional procedures. And we also investigated for DRLs revision in the future. As a result, it turned out that it is important to create DRLs in medical procedures that can be effectively used in clinical settings.
