诊断成像的好处是巨大的,并彻底改变了医学实践。在过去的四分之一世纪里,成像技术的复杂性和临床疗效的提高导致了其急剧增长。虽然从日本原子弹爆炸幸存者和其他事件中获得的数据表明,扩大使用电离辐射成像方式可能最终导致受照射人口癌症发病率增加,但通过防止不适当地使用这种成像和优化研究,以获得最低辐射剂量的最佳图像质量,这一问题可能会最大限度地减少。ACR自1924年成立以来一直倡导辐射安全,并召集了ACR医学辐射剂量蓝带小组来解决这些问题。这份白色文件详细介绍了该小组审议后提出的学院行动计划。
The benefits of diagnostic imaging are immense and have revolutionized the practice of medicine. The increased sophistication and clinical efficacy of imaging have resulted in its dramatic growth over the past quarter century. Although data derived from the atomic bomb survivors in Japan and other events suggest that the expanding use of imaging modalities using ionizing radiation may eventually result in an increased incidence of cancer in the exposed population, this problem can likely be minimized by preventing the inappropriate use of such imaging and by optimizing studies that are performed to obtain the best image quality with the lowest radiation dose. The ACR, which has been an advocate for radiation safety since its inception in 1924, convened the ACR Blue Ribbon Panel on Radiation Dose in Medicine to address these issues. This white paper details a proposed action plan for the college derived from the deliberations of that panel.
