Radiation-associated cataracts among interventional physicians and support staff
Publication date: Available online 16 February 2016 Source:Journal of Indian College of Cardiology Author(s): Gerald R. Schultz The lens is especially sensitive to ionization from radiation which alters the protein in its organized collagen fibers, making them opaque. Professional and ancillary personnel are at risk for developing radiation-induced cataracts since the radiation can have an accumulative effect. Appropriate detection devices, protective clothing, and shields in the exam area as well as safe techniques can reduce, if not eliminate this danger. (Source: Journal of Indian College of Cardiology)
