Safety and Health Committee Cataract Study Project

SIR'S Safety and Health Committee will be conducting a study at this year's Annual Scientific Meeting in New Orleans (April 13-17), to examine the type and severity of characteristic radiation-induced posterior lens changes, including potential for posterior subcapsular cataract, in an IR cohort of meeting attendees. The findings will then be compared to various medical and non-medical professional control groups, including non-interventional radiologists who are not normally exposed to X-rays.

Findings may help in developing appropriate occupational guidelines for exposure to low levels of ionizing radiation and determining future risk of radiation cataract development.
