Abstract:
Mobile computed tomography (CT) can be used for critically ill patients’ bedside CT scans in an operating room or intensive care unit because of its flexibility and convenience compared to conventional CT. Meanwhile, attention has been paid to the ionizing radiation hazards brought by mobile CT scans due to a lack of wall shielding protection from a fixed machinery room, especially the control of radiation dose to the surrounding medical staff and the public. This article mainly discusses the radiation protection of mobile CT from aspects such as radiation protection principles, protection management, and protection of examinees, staff, and the public by summarizing relevant standards, guidelines, and literature in China and globally to provide a reference for the standardized use of mobile CT.
