A new real-time dose monitoring tool developed by Toshiba America Medical Systems and Unfors Raysafe may help improve safety during interventional procedures.
According to Toshiba, this partnership is intended to provide customers with an easy-to-use integrated dose monitoring tool to reduce unnecessary radiation exposure
The Unfors RaySafe i2, offered in Toshiba's Infinix-i cardiovascular X-ray systems, assigns a dosimetry badge to each staff member that's wirelessly connected to an in-room-mounted screen displaying radiation exposure. It not only monitors radiation in real time, it also archives dose exposure history for future analysis.

"With increasingly complex interventional procedures, the ability to accurately monitor radiation exposure in real time will enable hospitals to identify protocols and educate clinical staff members on ways to make procedures safer," David Sloop, director, X-ray Vascular Business Unit, Toshiba, said in a company press release.
