Diagnostic radiology procedures play a vital role in modern healthcare, providing non-invasive insights into patients’ medical conditions. However, the use of ionizing radiation in medical imaging raises concerns, particularly when pregnant patients require diagnostic assessments. The developing foetus is uniquely vulnerable to radiation exposure, necessitating a comprehensive understanding of foetal radiation risk and its global variations.

This abstract summarizes the key findings of a global study on Diagnostic Radiology Procedures and Foetal Radiation Risk. The study collected and analyzed data from healthcare institutions across multiple countries, encompassing a wide spectrum of diagnostic radiology examinations. The primary objectives were to assess variations in foetal radiation dose and risk across different regions, identify contributing factors, and propose strategies for risk mitigation.

The study revealed significant variability in foetal radiation doses among different radiology procedures, emphasizing the importance of personalized risk assessment. Regional differences were observed, with variations in healthcare practices and radiation protection measures influencing foetal radiation risk. Strategies to reduce risk included patient education and the optimization of imaging protocols to minimize radiation exposure while maintaining diagnostic quality.

In conclusion, this global study underscores the need for tailored approaches to foetal radiation risk assessment and management in diagnostic radiology. By optimizing radiation safety measures and enhancing patient education, healthcare providers can improve the well-being of pregnant patients and their unborn children, ensuring that diagnostic radiology procedures remain a safe and essential component of modern healthcare worldwide.
