Avaliação da adequação de uma sala de CT-Crânio do HC-UFU conforme as normas de proteção radiológica

Abstract

In order to improve the safety of workers, patients and individuals in the public, involved in use of the ionizing radiation, radiation protection standards should be updated regularly. In Brazil, the norm for the use of ionizing radiation in practices diagnostic imaging is based on the Resolution of the Collegiate Board (RDC) N°330 of the Brazilian Health Regulatory Agency (ANVISA), approved on December 20, 2019, there are also state ordinances that act as a complementary character as is the case of Normative Resolution N°002/DIVS/SES in the state of Santa Catarina.

This work aims to evaluate a Computed Tomography (CT) room at the Hospital de Clinicas of the Universidade Federal de Uberlândia in order to verify if it is in conformity with the established in the resolution RDC N° 330. A complementary comparison was also made between what is established in the standards: RDC N° 330 of the ANVISA, Normative Resolution N° 002 /DIVS/SES standard in force in the state of Santa Catarina of March 18, 2015 and the European radiation protection standard NLE 2011/0254.
