Lumbar discectomy and fusion: Organs’ dose and effective dose estimation using Monte Carlo simulation

In this study, the effect of patient- and procedure-related parameters on organs' dose (OD), peak skin dose (PSD) and effective dose (ED) during lumbar discectomy and fusion (LDF) was assessed. Intra-operative parameters obtained from 102 LDFs were inserted into VirtualDose-IR software implemen...
