The aim of this work is to evaluate the usefulness of using augmented reality (AR) to train medical professionals in radiological protection (RP) in fluoroscopy. A Microsoft HoloLens 2 device has been used to simulate a fluoroscopic device. The teaching scenario considers a Philips Azurion able to rotate to pre-defined gantry positions,a dorsal decubitus patient and a ceiling shield. Radiation exposures were simulated using the FLUKA Monte Carlo code. 11 radiologists were asked to reproduce their positioning as per a clinical procedure and to correctly position the ceiling shield. Then, they were presented with the radiation exposure of their choices and were able to further optimise it. After the session, they were asked to complete a questionnaire. Users rated the AR educational approach as Intuitive and relevant to RP education (35%) and inspiring to deepen their knowledge (18%). Nevertheless, a negative aspect was mainly the difficulty in dealing with the system (58%). Although the participants were radiologists, a minority recognised themselves as having accurate knowledge of the RP (18%), indicating a relevant knowledge gap. The usefulness of using AR in RP education for radiologists has been shown. The visual aid of such technology is likely to improve the consolidation of practical knowledge. The use of interactive teaching techniques has the possibility to both help radiology professionals consolidate their radiation protection training and confidence in their practices.
