Radiographic implications of procedures involving cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) – Selected aspects

Background: Some cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) implantation procedures require the use of X-rays, which is reflected by such parameters as total fluoroscopy time (TFT) and dose-area product (DAP – defined as the absorbed dose multiplied by the area irradiated). Material and Methods: T...
