| dc.description | The aim of this research work has been the estimation of the stochastic risk for five barium examinations. The sample was the population attending the Radiological Service of the `Nuestra Señora de la Victoria' University Hospital, who had been treated with some barium examinations, set in five different groups: oesophagus tract, oesophagus-gastric-duodenal tract, intestinal tract, enteroclysis and double enema. To estimate the stochastic risk, it is necessary to know the organ dose. This can be calculated from the dose-area product which allows us to determine the effective dose using software. The dose-area product is the most suitable quantity to measure in these types of examination. We have evaluated the contribution that each procedure provides to the genetically significant dose, somatically significant dose, collective effective dose, annual effective dose `per capita' and detriment, which are useful for assessing the population risk of cancer or hereditary effects after x-ray exposure. The contribution to the genetically significant dose is 6.7 µGy, to the somatically significant dose 8.82 mSv-yr, 16.07 person-Sv for the collective effective dose, 0.03 mSv for the `per capita' annual effective dose and the annual aggregated detriment is 0.33. |
