Radiation measurements in the vicinity of a standard urologic table modified for fluoroscopic-guided lithotripsy demonstrate radiation levels as high as 3000 mrem per hour at the edge of the table. Excessive radiation exposure to the physician, exceeding the annual maximum permissible dose to the eyes and thyroid, can be expected after only 10 cases. Suggested radiation protection measures include the use of finger, wrist and neck radiation monitors, eye and thyroid shields and improved shielding of both collimator and patient scatter radiation.
