Understanding Radiation Exposure from Imaging Procedures: Types, Rates, and Locations

This document explores the different levels of radiation exposure associated with imaging procedures, categorizing them as None, Low, Moderate, High, and Very High. It provides insights into the annual effective dose in millisieverts (mSv) per year, along with statistical distributions of total radiation exposure by imaging procedure type, anatomic site, and service location. The data aims to inform healthcare professionals and patients about the potential risks of radiation, promoting safer imaging practices and informed decision-making in medical diagnostics.
