背景:任何放射科医生的目标都是制作最高质量的诊断X射线照片,同时保持患者暴露量尽可能低(ALARA)。
目的:这项研究的目的是通过印度牙科学校的重复胶片分析来描述拒绝X光片的原因。
方法:在口腔医学和放射科进行的一项观察性研究,Manipal牙科科学学院,Manipal.
方法:在为期6个月的研究期间,对放射科的9,495例口内X光片和2339例口外X光片进行了重复胶片分析.
方法:SPSS版本16。使用描述性分析。
结果:结果显示,口内和口外X光片的重复率分别为7.1%和5.86%,分别。在报告的错误原因中,定位误差(38.7%)是最常见的,其次是不适当的角度(26.1%),和口腔内X光片的胶片放置不当(11.2%)。研究发现,口外X光片的最大重复频率是全景X光片(49%),其次是侧位头影(33%),和鼻旁窦视图(14%)。还观察到,被拘留者的口内X光片重复率最高(44.7%),和本科生(28.2%)。
结论:该研究指出需要更有针对性的干预措施,以实现在牙科学校环境中保持患者暴露ALARA的目标。
BACKGROUND: The goal of any radiologist is to produce the highest quality diagnostic radiographs, while keeping patient exposure as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA).
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to describe the reasons for radiograph rejections through a repeat film analysis in an Indian dental school.
METHODS: An observational study conducted in the Department of Oral Medicine and Radiology, Manipal College of Dental Sciences, Manipal.
METHODS: During a 6-month study period, a total of 9,495 intra-oral radiographs and 2339 extraoral radiographs taken in the Radiology Department were subjected to repeat film analysis.
METHODS: SPSS Version 16. Descriptive analysis used.
RESULTS: The results showed that the repeat rates were 7.1% and 5.86% for intraoral and extraoral radiographs, respectively. Among the causes for errors reported, positioning error (38.7%) was the most common, followed by improper angulations (26.1%), and improper film placement (11.2%) for intra-oral radiographs. The study found that the maximum frequency of repeats among extraoral radiographs was for panoramic radiographs (49%) followed by lateral cephalogram (33%), and paranasal sinus view (14%). It was also observed that repeat rate of intraoral radiographs was highest for internees (44.7%), and undergraduate students (28.2%).
CONCLUSIONS: The study pointed to a need for more targeted interventions to achieve the goal of keeping patient exposure ALARA in a dental school setting.
