Core Tip |
Radiation is harmful to patients and operators. During peripheral angiogram and peripheral endovascular intervention (PEVI), radiation is produced. Our study showed that men had a greater dose area product (DAP) compared with women, but no difference in procedural outcomes. These findings are important, so that we may consider more radiation prudent practices in men to minimize the patient’s and operator’s radiation exposure. Such a study has not been previously conducted in PEVI and provides important real-world information. |
