dc.description.abstractThis study was conducted at Hatay Mustafa Kemal University Tayfur Ata Sokmen Faculty of Medicine. The dose results of 899 radiation workers between 2012 and 2021 were examined. The aim of this study was to analyze the dose results of occupational radiation-exposed workers. Additionally, the lifetime excess cancer risk for radiation workers has been estimated. Radiation workers were divided into five categories: diagnostic radiology (DR), dental radiology (Dent), endoscopy (Endo), angiography (Ang), and operating room (OR). Average annual effective doses were obtained for each category. The highest exposure was recorded in diagnostic radiology workers, while the lowest exposure was observed in endoscopy workers. In this study, the annual average effective dose values for personnel exposed to radiation were calculated as 1.38 mSv, 0.97 mSv, 1.28 mSv, 1.48 mSv, and 1.44 mSv for DR, Dent, Endo, Ang, and OR, respectively. The projected cancer risk for DR, Dent, Endo, Ang, and OR between 2012 and 2021 is observed to be 7.09, 1.12, 0.95, 2.44, and 3.08 per million individuals respectively. According to the UNSCEAR 2000 report, worldwide average doses in diagnostic radiology and dental radiology were reported as 1.34 mSv and 0.89 mSv, respectively. The annual average effective doses were well below the permissible annual limit of 20 mSv.en_US
