Organ or tissue doses were measured with an anthropomorphic phantom using UAE exposure conditions averaged from the 29 cases, and effective doses were estimated for the patient. Entrance surface dose of the patients at the maximum dose position ranged from 121.5 to 1650 mGy. Estimated doses ranged from 3.16 to 43 mGy for the ovary and from 3.8 to 51.8 mGy for the uterus. The effective dose was 1.09-14.8 mSv. Monitored doses on the body surface of physicians were relatively high in the upper arm (5.41+-1.52 to 163+-17.25 mGy) and the hand and fingers (0.85+-1.18 to 222+-16.4 mGy).}, pages = {343--350}, title = {Surface dose measurement in patients and physicians and effective dose estimation in patients during uterine artery embolization.}, volume = {128}, year = {2008} }
