The new recommendation of the International Commission on Radiological Protection for
occupational eye dose is an equivalent dose limit to the eye of 20 mSv year–1, averaged …

It has long been known that acute radiation exposures of several gray cause cataracts in the
eye lens. These develop over comparatively short time scales, so studies do not require a …

Abstract The International Commission on Radiological Protection has substantially reduced
the recommended maximum annual eye lens dose for workers. Use of a dedicated eye …

Recent epidemiological studies suggest a rather low dose threshold (below 0.5 Gy) for the
induction of a cataract of the eye lens. Some other studies even assume that there is no …

The ICRP has recently recommended reducing the occupational exposure dose limit for the
lens of the eye to 20 mSv y− 1, averaged over a period of 5 y, with no year exceeding 50 …

Interventional fluoroscopic guided cardiac procedures lead to radiation exposure to the
lenses of the eyes of cardiologists, which over time may be associated with an increased risk …

Ten types of lenses were tested for their radiation protection properties in three experimental
circumstances:(a) Their good geometry (scatter free) attenuation was determined as a …
