One of the fundamental principles of radiation
protection is distance factor. In CT facilities maximum dose occurs near gantry
and dose rate is decreases by distance. To know the rate of reduction of the
amount of dose that distance is very important for radiation protection
procedure especially for apply criterias of International Commission on
Radiological Protection (ICRP) on radiation protection. This technical study
aimed to investigate the backscattered dose amount from 16 Slice CT devices for
verification of radiation protection measures in several CT facilities and also
to evaluate the shielding properties of walls of operating room and patient
waiting room. This technical study has been performed in Goztepe Education and
Research Hospital, Umraniye Education and Research Hospital, Haydarpasa
Education and Research Hospital, Beykoz Education and Research Hospital and
Sancaktepe Education and Research Hospital, respectively. In this study, we
measured the dose rates from the gantry until exit door and behind the door.
The results showed that, backscattered dose amount has been decreased by
distance. We obtained only background radiation in radiographer room and
patient waiting room.  The results showed
also that radiation protection requirements are maximized in investigated
hospitals.
It can be concluded that,
recent method can be applied for various CT facilities for optimum radiation
protection studies which also in discussion with ICRP and IAEA for better
radiation protection and shielding in radiology clinics.
