- •
A method is presented to estimate the scatter radiation dose at operator eye height.
- •
The method allows estimating scatter radiation dose measuring ambient dose equivalent.
- •
Operator could exceed threshold for lens opacities if protection tools are not used.
- •
There is a good linear correlation between kerma-area product and scatter radiation dose.
- •
Different C-arm angulations can modify the scatter dose rate.
