Général

Ionising radiation offers various applications in the medical sector for diagnosis and treatment. However, the large use of x-ray medical imaging accounts now for half of the  yearly collective dose to the Belgian population. Next to the patient, also the medical professionals operating the x-ray devices receive an amount of radiation dose which could lead to detrimental effects.

Working with ionising radiation requires adequate understanding of relevant radiation protection issues in order to optimise the dose for the best clinical care and to prevent and reduce the dose related risks for the patient and the exposed worker.

This training session is part of a series of sessions organised in the framework of the continuous professional development  in radiation protection for medical exposure. The aim is to discuss the most recent status of relevant subjects in radiation protection for professionals responsible for the patient exposure to ionising radiation.

Groupe cible

All professionals who are directly involved in the patient exposure to ionising radiation, such as radiologists and other medical specialists using x-rays, as well as nurses and paramedical personnel assisting in the patient exposure of ionising radiation.

This training session is eligible for 2,5 hours of continuous professional development in radiation protection for the prolongation of the certification of radiologists and other medical specialists using x-rays (Art 53.1 Royal Decree 20 July 2001). It is also eligible as CPD for nurses and paramedical personnel assisting in the patient exposure of ionising radiation (art. 53.2 Royal Decree 20 July 2001). A certificate of attendance will be provided.
