ABSTRACT
To evaluates the eye-lens radiation exposure of workers during medical interventional procedures and surgery in a military hospital as well as of the equine veterinarians. The measures represent the exposure in a normal workload schedule of ninety randomly selected workers over a 3-month period, extrapolated to 1 year. The eye-lens dosemeters were placed near the eye closest to the radiation source (Carinou, E., Ferrari, P., Bjelac, O. C., Gingaume, M., Merce, M. S. and O'Connor, U. Eye lens monitoring for interventional radiology personnel dosemeters, calibration and practical aspects of H p (3) monitoring. A 2015 review. J. Radiol. Prot. 2015;35(3) R17-R34). Three models of eye-lens dosemeters (Dosilab, Landauer and IRSN) were assessed in term of ergonomics. The annual estimation of eye-lens doses did not reach the annual dose limit of 20 mSv revised by the ICRP, ranged from 0.00 to 18.12 mSv with a mean of 0.96 ± 2.28 mSv. However, these results cannot be representative of a heavy workload or incident situations for which radiation exposure to the eye-lens could exceed this limit. The IRSN dosemeter model was considered the most convenient.
