Cumulative radiation in critically ill patients: a retrospective audit of ionising radiation exposure in an intensive care unit.

CONCLUSION: Most ICU patients received low CED during their stay, with the majority receiving less than the recommended limit for members of the public (1 mSv). These results may educate clinicians regarding radiation exposures in ICU settings, highlighting the relatively low exposures and thus low risk to the patients. PMID: 31462208 [PubMed - in process]
