Gonad shielding in paediatric pelvic radiography: disadvantages prevail over benefit
OBJECTIVE: To re-evaluate gonad shielding in paediatric pelvic radiography in terms of attainable radiation risk reduction and associated loss of diagnostic information. METHODS: A study on patient dose and the quality of gonad shielding was performed retrospectively using 500 pelvic radiographs of...
