Advances in Cardiovascular Imaging: EACVI survey on radiation exposure in interventional echocardiography

With Elena Romero Dorta, Charite University Hospital, Berlin - Germany and Elena Galli, Hospital Pontchaillou of Rennes, Rennes - France.  The recently published EACVI survey on radiation exposure in interventional echocardiography illustrates the high heterogeneity regarding radioprotection devices between centers and the low awareness of echocardiographers concerning their risk in this rapidly evolving field, which highlights the need of a systematic education of imagers on radioprotection measurements. Elena Romero Dorta takes you through the most relevant points of this article with the main author, Elena Galli, who tells us about her experience, the motivation behind this survey and the aspects to highlight according to her expertise.
