Comparative analysis of the external exposure of different professional groups of medical staff of Dushanbe city of the Republic of Tajikistan

The work provides a comparative analysis of average annual individual radiation doses based on the obtained values of individual dose equivalent Hp (10), which had been obtained during 5 years of investigations (2014-2018) by using the thermo-luminescent dosimetry method of 70 employees working comp...

description The work provides a comparative analysis of average annual individual radiation doses based on the obtained values of individual dose equivalent Hp (10), which had been obtained during 5 years of investigations (2014-2018) by using the thermo-luminescent dosimetry method of 70 employees working computed tomography, radioscopy, fluorography and radiography from 15 medical institutions in Dushanbe city. The ratio of medical personnel of the different professional groups showed that 63% of them were engaged in radiography, 19% x-ray, 10% computed tomography and 8% radioscopy. Analysis of the average annual radiation doses of every occupational group showed that the specialists in charge of fluorography have a high dose (max 1.74 mSv) and the personal of computed tomography have the lowest dose (max 1.34 mSv), and over time there is a tendency to equalize the values of average annual doses for all professional groups in the area close to the value of 1.5 mSv. The obtained data of the effective annual dose for all occupational categories had not exceeded the permissible dose limits values required by the «Radiation Safety Standards» (NRB-06 SP 2.6.1.001-06). Calculations are given without subtracting background values. The analysis data allows to identify the most exposed professional groups and to address the issues of ensuring radiation safety in a targeted manner.
