Workload, W• Types of Rooms in 1996 Workload Survey:– Radiographic Rooms– Radiographic and Fluoroscopic (R&F) Rooms– Chest Room– Mammography Room– Cardiac Angiography Room– Peripheral Angiography Room• (But this missed the Cu-filtered high-heat h h loadingunits seen today in Interventional Labs and somefluoroscopic units)30
Workload Survey• Found total W to be far different from the 1000mA·min/wk blindly assumed– Radiographic Rooms: 277 mA·min/wk– Chest Rooms: 45 mA·min/wk– Cardiac Angio Rooms: 3050 mA·min/wk• Found kVp distribution of workloads to be atpotentials significantly below the single kVpoperating value usually assumed31
