- This study aims to identify factors affecting radiation exposure during cerebral angiography (CA) and brain aneurysm embolization (BAE), establishing typical values based on procedure complexity.
- A review of 348 examinations revealed that patient gender significantly influences radiation exposure, with males experiencing higher levels for both procedures.
- Key findings indicate that the number of treated vessels during CA and the aneurysm's location during BAE also contribute to increased exposure levels.
