Abstract
Exposed dose of a patient was measured by Radiophotoluminescent Glass Rod Detector with a use of a panorama graphic device in dental examination. The effect of exposed dose in optic lens was measured by comparing the different materials of the glasses. Depending on the dental location, the exposed dose distribution was 82.4~2,340uSv. It showed that the maximum difference in dose distribution was over 300%. Thus, when manufacturing the devices, it seemed to require shortening the pre-heat time and additional shielding in order to control the diagnosis and exposed dose. The measurement data of the exposed dose in optic lens was increased 20~75uSv per each test when compared putting on glasses with not wearing. As a result, taking off the glasses is recommended to improve efficiency of the test and minimize the exposed dose during dental panorama graphic examinations.
