Ted, 

There were two recent articles in the American Journal of Roetgenology

entitled "Skin Injuries from Fluoroscopically Guided Procedures" Parts 1 and

2.  If you would like them I can send them as pdf files.

Subject: Fluoro Accident???





Can anyone point me to some information regarding a Fluoro accident -

recent - where the patient got radiation burns?



I am assuming "recent" means the past 5 years and I forget which state

it was supposed to be in - but its and eastern state.



I'd like to know the details of the accident and the equipment involved.



Thanks
