Abstract
The benefits of fluoroscopically guided interventional procedures are significant and have established new standards in the clinical management of many diseases. Despite the benefits, it is known that they come with known risks, such as the exposure to ionizing radiation. To minimize such risks, it is crucial that the health professionals involved in the procedures have a common understanding of the concepts related to radiation protection, such as dose descriptors, diagnostic reference levels and typical dose values. An update about these concepts will be presented with the objective to raise awareness amongst health professionals and contribute to the increase in knowledge, skills and competences in radiation protection in fluoroscopically guided interventional procedures.
