Fluoroscopy exposures

["Rivenbark, Melodie" <mrivenba@research.usf.edu>]

     I am passing on this request from Janet Jones, B.A. CGC from the 
     Center for Swallowing Disorders at the University of South Florida, 
     813/974-3374.  She is interested in finding out information on 
     fluoroscopy exposures to patients and personnel working with the 
     fluoroscopes.  She lectures to nurses and speech pathologists, who are 
     often unprepared in the safety aspects of handling the exams.  Her 
     concern is on the lack of available information and training on the 
     proper use and safety of fluoroscopes.  Please contact her at the 
     number listed above, or feel free to respond to me at my e-mail 
     address and I will pass it along.  Thank you.
