Abstract:
Fluoroscopic imaging is widely utilised for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures and is fundamental to the establishment and maintenance of dialysis vascular access. To optimise outcomes and avoid injury to patients and healthcare providers, radiation technology must be applied effectively and safely in clinical practice. Radiation safety may be overlooked by nephrology training curricula. This narrative review discusses the theoretical and practical principles of radiation management in fluoroscopy-guided procedures and is intended as a primer for trainees and nephrologists working in interventional settings.
