ایمنی تابش برای کارگران باردار در یک تسهیلات پروتون

Radiation dose to passively scattered proton and photon radiation therapy technologists was similar when measured with a dosimeter worn at the waist over a period of 14 weeks. On the basis of these data, the departmental policy permits pregnant radiation workers to work in proton treatment areas, and the policy for pregnant workers does not differ between proton and photon radiation workers or between passive scatter and scanning beam systems. All employees are encouraged to limit time near and proximity to activated equipment.
