Zusammenfassung:The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential risks encountered during X-ray training in radiology education. 10 exposure scenarios were selected by interviewing the radiation experts who they are professors having roles in the X-ray training. Fourteen organ doses and 13 tissues (weighted per ICRP 103 Publication) were measured with glass dosimeters (GD-352M) and a Rando phantom. Of 270 total organ doses (27 tissues with 10 projection methods) measured, 162 organ doses (60%) were
