Objective To study the frequency of diagnostic medical radiological examinations and the distribution of examinees in Jiangxi province by sampling investigation,including normal X-ray diagnosis,computed tomography (CT),interventional radiology.Methods Hospitals of different levels in Jiangxi province were chosen by the typical sampling method.Questionnaire was used in this study.Results There were more male examinees than female in diagnostic medical radiological examinations.For the distribution of age,the "0-" group accounted for the lowest and the "40-" group the highest proportion.The annual frequency in 2016 in Jiangxi was 543.07 examinations per 1 000 population for normal X-ray diagnosis,244.79 examinations per 1 000 population for CT scanning,6.28 examinations per 1 000 population for interventional radiology.Conclusions The frequency of diagnostic medical radiological examinations in Jiangxi has been increased rapidly which made a huge challenge for radiological protection.Therefore,the supervision and management of diagnostic medical radiological examinations should be enhanced and medical resources should be rationally allocated.

Objective: Throughing the investigation and analysis of seven cases of acute lung injury caused by a welding operation, the hazards and production pathways of harmful gases such as phosgene and nitrogen oxides are understood, which will serve as a reference for preventing similar events in the future. Methods: Throughing the accident scene environment investigation and clinical case analysis, combined with the laboratory test results, carried on the comprehensive analysis. Results: The accident caused a total of 7 people to suffer from acute lung injury to varying degrees. Three of them were sent to the ICU ward for treatment due to acute respiratory failure. After active treatment, 7 people were discharged from the hospital with obvious relief. Conclusion Welding is also a kind of profession that causes the high incidence of acute lung injury accidents. It is necessary to strengthen the knowledge training and protection awareness education of welding workers to avoid the occurrence of acute harmful gas poisoning accidents.

Objective: To study the frequency of clinical nuclear medicine procedures and the distribution of examinees in Jiangxi povince, and to estimate the annual frequency of clinical nuclear medicine procedures in Jiangxi in 2017. Methods: A survey was made with questionnaires on all medical institutions carrying out clinical nuclear medicine practices in the province. Results: Except for positron emission tomography (PET) examinations, the frequency of nuclear medicine procedures for females was much higher than that for males. The total frequency of nuclear medicine procedures was 0.67 examinations per 1 000 population in 2017, and the frequencies for diagnosis and treatment were 0.58 and 0.09 examinations per 1 000 population, respectively. Conclusions The frequency of clinical nuclear medicine procedures in Jiangxi increased rapidly after the "Ninth Five-Year Plan" period. It is necessary to further standardize the diagnosis and treatment of nuclear medicine procedures, to enhance the awareness of radiation protection of nuclear medicine staff and to promote the healthy and orderly development of nuclear medicine.

Objective To investigate the reasons why the routine monitoring of personal dose of occupational external exposure of some radiological workers in our province reached the investigation level in 2018, so as to provide technical support for the correct decision making of administrative departments. Methods The registration forms for monitoring and verifying the personal dose of occupational external exposure were issued to radiation workers whose periodic dose reached or exceeded 1.25 mSv/ cycle. Results A total of 102 person-times were sent out in 53 verification forms, and 95 person-times were collected in 47 copies. The recovery rate was 88.68%, and 7 person-times did not feedback the verification forms. There were 15 cases of actual exposure, accounting for 15.79%, including 5 cases of radiological diagnostic staff, who did not close the protective door when operating exposure. Among them, the other 80 cases, accouting for 84.21% didn't receive actual exposure. Conclusion The vast majority of radiological workers who reached the survey level didn't receive actual exposure. 5 person-time radiological diagnostic staff, during the work did not close the protective door, subjected to abnormal radiation. Interventional medicine, nuclear medicine and industrial mobile flaw detection workers are at higher risk of abnormal exposures during their work. The suspicious results of the questionnaires without feedback were all less than the annual dose limit and the requirements of audit management. We will strengthen supervision of radiation health protection, raise the awareness of radiation protection among radiation workers, and improve radiation protection management and protection conditions for radiation workers in interventional medicine, nuclear medicine and industrial mobile flaw detection furtherly.
