Abstract:
Objective:To survey the current radiological health capability of 16 perferture-level disease control centers (CDCs) in Shandong province and analyze their shortcomings and disadvantages, in order to provide relevant reference basis for the radiological health capability building of such CDCs.Methods:Survey was carried out of radiology department, radiological health staff, equipment allocation, capabillity building and scientific research of these CDCs, together with the relevant data obtained being statistically analyzed.Results:In these CDCs of 16 cities in Shandong province, there were 70 staff engaged in radiological health, with 3 cities having independent radiological departments in place. There were statistically significant differences between independent departments and non-independent departments in the exclusive use of X-ray diagnostic examination equipment, medical electron accelerator examination equipment and on-site quality control testing work ( χ2=0.04, 0.01, 0.04, P<0.05). Between inland and coastal cities there was statistically significant difference in the capability dealing with nuclear and radiological emergency ( χ2=0.02, P<0.05). Conclusions:Independent departments are more conducive to the implement of government′s functional tasks than non-independent departments. There exist shortcomings and weaknesses in human resources, equipment allocation, in-food radioactivity testing, nuclear and radiological emergency in 16 prefectures and cities, so that the capability building needs to be further improved.
