The authors measured the radiation exposure of the digits of hospital staff during manual manipulations required for intracavitary therapy. Exposure of the thumbs and fingers of both hands was measured by means of individually calibrated LiF T1 pellets placed into Harshaw rings. The data were evaluated by the UCLA BMDP 1979. The correlation between the exposure of pairs of fingers is high for the same hand 0.90 and it is lower for that of different hands (0.31-0.60). The correlation coefficients referring of any one radiotherapist are higher in the case of exposure of the same hands. For any one type of treatment the correlation is high for both hands, too (0.95). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
