ABSTRACT
In this study, the effect of body-mass-index (BMI) on organ doses (ODs) during infrarenal endovascular-aneurysm-repair (EVAR) procedures was evaluated. Patient- and intra-operative data from fifty-nine EVAR procedures were inserted into VirtualDose-IR software to calculate ODs. For overweight, obesity class-I and obesity class-II, ODs were up to 147%, 412% and 775% higher than those for normal weight-patients, respectively. A large variation was observed in ODs published in literature mainly due to the differences in the software and the technical parameters used for the calculations.
