Calculation of the entrance skin dose distribution for fluoroscopically guided interventions using a pencil beam backscatter model

Radiation backscattered from the patient can contribute substantially to skin dose in fluoroscopically guided interventions (FGIs). The distribution of backscatter is not spatially uniform, and use of a single backscatter factor cannot provide an accurate determination of skin dose. This study evalu...
