3 questions to Pr. Michel Haïssaguerre, Cardiological Hospital Haut-Lévêque, Bordeaux, France
Interventional cardiology procedures, particularly in electrophysiology, involve some of the highest radiation exposures in medicine. In order to minimize exposure to X-rays during our cardiology procedures under fluoroscopy without having to wear restrictive aprons, thyroid protectors and lead glasses, we have started using radiation protection cabins
