One of the key parameters is the mean X-ray energy which medical staff may receive around their eyes, because the response of the dosimeter is strongly dependent on incident X-ray energy. However, there is a few studies which experimentally investigated scattered X-rays that medical staff actually encounters during their procedures. The scattered X-rays from X-ray diagnosis and therapeutic equipment was measured using the CdTeZn spectrometer. Derived results indicated that the mean X-ray energies ranged between 40 keV and 60 keV. The measurement results also support that the reduction effect on the eye lens dose due to the protection glasses or ceiling-suspended shield was experimentally evaluated from the pulse height spectra.}, pages = {39--49}, title = {Experimental evaluation of scattered X-ray spectra due to X-ray therapeutic and diagnosis equipment for eye lens dosimetry of medical staff}, volume = {47}, year = {2022} }
