Abstract

Introduction: The radiation safety protocol is an effort made to create conditions so that the dose of ionizing radiation that affects humans and the environment does not exceed the specified limit value. This study aimed to measure exposure to X-ray radiation on panoramic X-rays at ATRO Muhammadiyah Mak assar. Methods: This research was conducted at the radiology department of ATRO Muhammadiyah Makassar in December 2022. The tools and materi als that will be used in this research are dental X-ray planes, survey meters, and perspex phantom, with a thickness of 10 mm, as a substitute for organs in humans. Measurement of the radiation dose exposure in dental X-ray examinations was carried out using an exposure factor of 70 kV, 8 mA at a distance of 1 meter, 2 meters, 3 meters, and 4 meters from various directions, namely fron t, left side, right side, and back with time. Different exposure on each object. Results: The highest dose intensity value was found at 0.25 seconds with a distance of 1 meter in the forward direction with a dosing accuracy of 138.4 (µSv/h). The lowest point is at 0.17 seconds with a distance of 3 meters behind wit h a dosing accuracy of 0.89 (µSv/h) for an officer who is in the radiation field during irradiation. Conclusion: The safe distance for a radiation officer and the general public who must be in the radiation field to assist patients during an examination is 4 meters from the radiation source.

Abstract

One of the goals of radiation protection is to prevent stochastic effects from occurring and to limit the chances of stochastic effects occurring to a limit value that is acceptable to soci ety. This literature review aims to describe radiation protection standards for workers in hospital radiology. To prevent non-stochastic effects, a limit of 0.5 Sv (50 rem) in 1 year was used for all tissues except the lens of the eye. For eyepieces, the recommended annual limit is 0.15 Sv (15 rem). This limit va lue is used either for radiation reception by a single tissue or for radiation rec eption by multiple organs. To limit stochastic effects, the annual effective equivalent dose (HE) limit for whole-body radiation reception is 50 mSv (5 re m). The radiation protection equipment that must be available at a radio diagnostic facility is a lead apron, thyroid shield, gonad protectors, gloves, Pb g oggles, and lead curtains. In conclusion, radiation protection equipment must be provided by radiology facility operators and used by radiation workers, especially radiologists and other competent doctors. Periodic inspection and st andardized maintenance of radiation shields must be carried out for the sake of public safety.

Abstract

MRI is becoming the choice for performing high-resolution structural imaging in epilepsy. Selection of brain MRI sequences with appropriate clinical epilepsy is very important to s how abnormalities clearly so that the diagnosis can be made. The epilepsy protocol includes T1 and T2 weights, as well as fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR). This literature review aims to describe the protocol for brain MRI examination in epilepsy patients. There is one special sequence that is used as a parameter for brain MRI examination in cases of epilepsy, namely fast spin-echo inversion recovery (FSE-IR), which is a modification of conventional inversion recovery and is used to suppress signals from certain tissues a ssociated with T2 weighting. The coronal T2 propeller sequence is the sequence for showing pathology in the hippocampus. Coronal FSE-IR is useful for evaluating the hippocampus from the coronal side by eliminating the white signal to increase the contrast between white matter and gray matter. In conclu sion, each sequence in the MRI examination protocol has a specific goal, namely to reveal pathology on the MRI slice and establish a diagnosis.

Abstract

Introduction: M aking a diagnosis of COVID-19 requires quite sophisticated technology and tools. To make a diagnosis of COVID-19, a technology and tool are needed that can identify the presence of the genetic material of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. How ever, the existence of PCR tools cannot be spread evenly in various regions of Indonesia because the tools are quite difficult to operate and require adequate laboratory facilities. The radiological image of the chest is a promising supporting examination to be developed as a supporting examination to diagnose COVID-19. This study aimed to obtain an overview of chest radiology image s of COVID-19 patients at Undata General Hospital, Palu, Indonesia. Methods: This study is a descriptive observational study. A total of 20 research su bjects participated in this study. Observations of chest radiological images are presented in a univariate manner in the form of the frequency distribution of data using SPSS software. Results: Study subjects with mild degree s of COVID-19 had normal chest X-rays. Meanwhile, research subjects with moderate degrees of COVID-19 generally have a chest X-ray photo in the form of an infiltrate. Study subjects with severe COVID-19 had a chest X-ray image in the form of consolidated-ground glass opacity. Conclusion: The more severe the degree of COVID-19 is in line with the higher the inflammation in the lung tissu e, so a radiological image of the thorax appears in the form of a consolidated-ground glass opacity image.

Abstract

Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) is a chronic and contagious infectious disease that can attack almost all organs of the human body, especially the lungs, caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium Tuberculosis. Chest X-ray is a fast imaging technique and one of the main tools that have high sensitivity for diagnosing pul monary TB. This study aimed to find out more about the overview of radiological images of chest X-rays of patients with tuberculosis at BARI General Hospital , Palembang, Indonesia. Methods: This study is a descriptive observational study. A total of 50 research subjects participated in this study. The radiological images of the chest X-rays are presented in the form of grouping, namel y the presence of infiltrates, consolidation, fibrosis, cavities, and effusions. In addition, observations were made on the location of the emergence of va rious abnormalities on the radiological image of the chest X-rays in a descriptive way. Results: This study showed that the majority of study subjects had to infiltrate radiological features, and the majority of study subjects had le sions at the apex of the superior lobe. Conclusion: The radiological images of the chest X-rays in TB patients show the presence of infiltrate, consoli dation, fibrosis, effusion, and cavity lesions, where the lesions are in line with the progressivity of TB.
