Simulation of the shielding effect of lead apron undergoing chest CT scan.
Lead aprons are used to reduce radiation dose to patients. As the distance between the lead apron and the edge of the scan range increases, organ dose is expected to decrease, but with increasing scattered radiation dose in the body. By simulation, this work aims at estimate whether the organ dose increases due to the scattered radiation in the body with lead apron. A standard-sized male and a female phantom is used to simulate organ doses of chest scans in various lead apron shielding situations. Simulations in this work considered different distance between the edge of the 0.35-mm lead apron and the edge of the scan range. For the female phantom, the dose to the gonads was significantly reduced (56% on average), but not as much as men (78% on average). However, the amount of dose reduction is small for male and female phantoms (0.0082 mGy/100 mAs and 0.0160 mGy/100 mAs).
期刊介绍：
Radiation Protection Dosimetry covers all aspects of personal and environmental dosimetry and monitoring, for both ionising and non-ionising radiations. This includes biological aspects, physical concepts, biophysical dosimetry, external and internal personal dosimetry and monitoring, environmental and workplace monitoring, accident dosimetry, and dosimetry related to the protection of patients. Particular emphasis is placed on papers covering the fundamentals of dosimetry; units, radiation quantities and conversion factors. Papers covering archaeological dating are included only if the fundamental measurement method or technique, such as thermoluminescence, has direct application to personal dosimetry measurements. Papers covering the dosimetric aspects of radon or other naturally occurring radioactive materials and low level radiation are included. Animal experiments and ecological sample measurements are not included unless there is a significant relevant content reason.
