Fluoroscopic peroperative cholangiography: technique and associated radiation hazards.
The techniques specific to peroperative fluorocholangiography are discussed based on an experience of 632 cholangiograms and an estimation has been made of the associated radiation doses to staff and patients. Rapid and accurate information can be obtained during fluorocholangiography using appropriate techniques with acceptably low radiation hazards.
