Review of air kerma-area product, effective dose and dose conversion coefficients for non-cardiac interventional fluoroscopy procedures.

The values of PKA , average E and suggested DCE presented here can be of use for comparison of the radiation detriment from different procedures and may be useful for categorizing detriment within an order of magnitude or so. They do not represent actual or expected radiation dose or detriment from any specific procedure or for a specific patient and should be not be used as such.
