What methods can reduce the radiation dose of medical X-ray machines to doctors and patients?

With the steady improvement of my country’s medical level and the qualitative improvement in the use of medical devices, medical X-ray machines have been widely used in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of various diseases, such as surgical angiography, abdominal organ angiography, Gastrointestinal fluoroscopy, etc., the application scope covers orthopedics, radiology, gynecology, urology, vascular and neurosurgery, etc. EEG machine

As we all know, X-rays are radioactive, and the exposure can accumulate in the body, which can damage various tissues and organs of the human body. If exposed to X-rays for a long time, the number of white cells in the human body will gradually decrease, and at the same time, it will cause symptoms such as infection or decreased resistance in the human body. If exposed to X-rays for a long time, it will cause the internal body of the human body. Cell mutations can cause cancer in severe cases. So, what methods can reduce the radiation dose of doctors and patients?

First of all, when the hospital issues an operation notice in the operating department, it should indicate the specific procedure of using the medical X-ray machine in the operation on the notice, and do a good job of cooperating with the patient during the operation.

Secondly, metal objects on the patient's body during the filming examination may affect the examination results. The patient should be told in advance to remove these metal objects before the examination to avoid repeated examinations in the future.

Then, the operators should wear protective materials such as lead caps, lead collars, and lead suits; if other personnel are not on the scene, leave the scene as much as possible, and those who cannot leave the scene should stay away from the radioactive source as much as possible to reduce the radiation dose.

The operating room should be placed as neatly as possible. Excessive items should not be placed. Excessive items will cause X-ray refraction and produce secondary rays.

Although X-rays contain harmful radiation, as a necessary medical method, X-ray inspection still plays an important role in the medical industry and is widely used. Especially when the patient's superficial symptoms are not enough to diagnose the disease, a medical X-ray machine is needed to check and help the doctor confirm the diagnosis. Medical X-ray machines are large-scale and valuable special medical equipment. With the continuous development of modern technology, medical X-ray machines are increasingly being used in medical diagnosis. Therefore, it is necessary to have a clear understanding of the principles and protection of X-rays in order to better avoid the harm caused by X-rays to the human body.

The above is the relevant information compiled by EEG machine manufacturers, I hope it will be helpful to everyone.
