Diagnostic nuclear medicine and risk for the fetus.

European journal of nuclear medicine - 1 Feb 1998

Steenvoorde P, Pauwels E K, Harding L K, Bourguignon M, Marière B, Broerse J J

Abstract excerpt

The possible detrimental effects on the developing embryo subsequent to irradiation are discussed. The doses to the embryo or fetus encountered for the most common procedures in diagnostic nuclear medicine are evaluated with respect to the threshold doses and the risks per cGy. The threshold dose for fatal and non-fatal malformations or other defects is, at the lowest estimate, 5-10 cGy. The dose which the embryo...
