Simulation Study on Radiation Exposure of Emergency Medical Responders From Radioactively Contaminated Patients

2020-12-10

Abstract excerpt

Emergency medical responders (EMRs), who save victims in a radiation emergency, are at risk of radiation exposure. In this study, the exposure dose to EMRs assisting contaminated patients was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation, and will produce data that contributes to EMR education and anxiety reduction. Using the Monte Carlo simulation, we estimated radiation doses for adult computational phantoms with rad...
