Abstract
|
|
|
The objective of this study was to improve the awareness of medical radiation safety management systems in dentistry.
This study surveyed the current status of the radiation safety management systems of dental clinics through a
questionnaire and produced an educational program to improve awareness. Changes in the levels of awareness before and after implementation of the educational program were compared using a questionnaire. This study found that dental clinics use personal dosimeters and basic radiation protection equipment, but comprehension of the diagnostic reference levels and preparations related to image quality management were insufficient. After participating in the education program, the level of awareness improved and reliability was significantly high. In conclusion, the basic data for periodically comparing the improvement of radiation safety management systems was generated, and continuous education using customized education programs designed to improve awareness was recommended.
