Patient radiation dose during hospitalization for acute ischemic Stroke: Five years of experience of a single tertiary referral hospital
Purpose
To assess local radiation dose levels and quantify the contribution of individual X-ray procedures to the cumulative effective dose during hospitalization for acute ischemic stroke (AIS).
Methods
A dosimetric survey was conducted in AIS patients undergoing fluoroscopically guided mechanical thrombectomy (MT). Radiation dose data were collected using a commercial Radiation Dose Monitoring System (RDMS) while clinical data were extracted from the Hospital Information System (HIS) and merged with dose records for comprehensive analysis. Local dose levels were determined for all X-ray procedures, including admission diagnostic CT scans, MT, and follow-up CT before discharge.
Results
A total of 670 MT procedures were analyzed. The median Kerma Area Product (KAP) was 115 Gy·cm2 (IQR: 69–189). Median dose-length product (DLP) values for CT scans were: Brain CT at admission, 1091 mGy·cm (IQR: 782–1171); CT angiography, 1077 mGy·cm (IQR: 773–1187); CT perfusion, 2529 mGy·cm (IQR: 2055–2961); and Brain CT at discharge, 844 mGy·cm (IQR: 689–946). The estimated cumulative effective dose for the complete workflow was 22.4 mSv (IQR: 17.1–29.7), with interventional procedures contributing approximately 50 %. CT perfusion accounted for an additional 5 mSv.
Conclusions
This study quantified local radiation dose levels for MT and associated CT imaging in AIS patients treated in a high-volume interventional radiology suite. A cumulative effective dose of 22 mSv is associated with the entire patient workflow, with MT procedures accounting for approximately 50 %. Further research is needed to assess organ dose in complex care pathways, as an estimate of patient-specific radiation risk.
