Assessment of scatter radiation in the shielding of radiography procedures

Scattered radiation is the largest contributor to patient dose and the main cause for stochastic effects (1-3). Evaluate the use of radiological protections and attenuating materials depending on the scattered radiation which the patient is subject, analyzing the appropriate placement of the protect...
