[Radiation exposure of the hands and feet during x-ray studies in small animals].

In early years of radiology, many severe radiation injuries in radiologists were registered. Unfortunately, there are still cases of skin lesions of the hands of veterinarians. The main reason for this is careless handling during the examination. First of all the veterinarian should try to stay out of the primary beam. In addition, he must be aware that lead gloves are no protection against primary rays. In contrast, the risk of placing the feet in the primary beam is relatively low. Monitoring of radiation shows, that, if veterinarians are aware of the hazards, there is no danger of radiation damage. Advice for reducing the exposure dose to the hands is given.
