We aim to evaluate safety of radiation by measuring leakage dose and patient(phantom) incident dose of ZEN-PX II dental portable equipment developed by G company. Measurement for leakage dose of equipment is conducted on the top, at the bottom, on the left, on the right and at the back. Dose measurement incident on the subject with the area dosimeter when using the phantom and measurement the leakage dose of equipment when using the phantom are evaluated. Comparing the right with the highest leakage dose as a 0 cm, 25 cm, 50 cm, 75 cm and 100 cm dose measurement at the measurement height of 100 cm, 64.2 uR was reduced to 47.3 uR in the senser mode 0.32sec. Even in film mode it was measured at 414.4 uR and about 27% lower at 162.6 uR. As the result of this study, when the irradiation time is 2 sec the right side dose is 290.5 uR and sensor mode is 0.32 sec the right side dose is 64.2 uR.

치과방사선 검사에 있어 방사선작업종사자의 위치에 따라 방사선 노출 정도를 평가하고자 촬영실과 납유리, 조작대에서 방사선량률을 측정하였다. 사용된 장치로는 Standard(Max-GLS, Shinhung), 파노라마(PCH-2500, Vatech), 세팔로(PCH-2500), Cone beam CT(PHT-30LFO, Vatech)이며, 방사선측정기는 PM1405 장비이다. 촬영조건은 임상에서 사용하는 인자와 동일하게 설정하였다. 그 결과 촬영실 안에서는 Cone beam CT가 98 uSv/h로 가장 높았으며, standard가 0.4 uSv/h로 가장 낮은 수치를 보였다. 또 파노라마가 촬영방식이 다름으로 인하여 세팔로 보다 높게 측정되었다. 납유리 표면과 조작대에서는 구강내와 파노라마, 세팔로는 모두 기록준위 이하로 측정되었지만, Cone beam CT는 누설선량이 있는 것으로 측정되었다. 이에 방사선작업종사는 적절한 방호도구를 하고 촬영시간을 최대한 줄여야 한다. 또, 방사선실의 구조 또한 효율적으로 설계해야 할 것이다. 치과방사선검사는 최근 지속적으로 증가하고 있기 때문에 환자와 방사선작업종사자에 대한 적절한 방호 대책이 필요하다.

Purpose: To compare the leakage and scattered radiation from hand-held dental X-ray unit with radiation from fixed dental X-ray unit. Materials and Methods: For evaluation we used one hand-held dental X-ray unit and Oramatic 558 (Trophy Radiologie, France), a fixed dental X-ray unit. Doses were measured with Unfors Multi-O-Meter 512L at the right and left hand levels of X-ray tube head part for the scattered and leakage radiation when human skull DXTTR III was exposed to both dental X-ray units. And for the leakage radiation only, doses were measured at the immediately right, left, superior and posterior side of the tube head part when air was exposed. Exposure parameters of handheld dental X-ray unit were 70 kVp, 3 mA, 0.1 second, and of fixed X-ray unit 70 kVp, 8 mA, 0.45 second. Results: The mean dose at the hand level when human skull DXTTR III was exposed with portable X-ray unit $6.39{\mu}Gy$, and the mean dose with fixed X-ray unit $3.03{\mu}Gy$ (p<0.001). The mean dose at the immediate side of the tube head part when air was exposed with portable X-ray unit was $2.97{\mu}Gy$ and with fixed X-ray unit the mean dose was $0.68{\mu}Gy$ (p<0.01). Conclusions: The leakage and scattered radiation from hand-held dental radiography was greater than from fixed dental radiography.
