Early detection and warning in interventional radiology (edwin) system improves patient safety and radiation dose optimization at professor ngoerah public hospital, bali, indonesia

The Indonesian Ministry of Health conducted a health transformation with plans to develop hospitals for services related to heart disease, stroke, cancer, and urology, the four diseases that cause the highest mortality rate in Indonesia. This mission requires Interventional Radiology Modalities involving the use of ionizing radiation. Therefore, the EDWIN system is crucial for improving patient safety and radiation dose optimization, to detect and alert potential radiation dose and use of contrast media (CM) in real-time, allowing for timely adjustments to be made to optimize radiation exposure and CM use to the patient.
