Adénocarcinome de la glande lacrymale dans un rétinoblastome bilatéral traité avec radiothérapie externe : à propos d’un cas
2011
This clinical case report describes the clinical findings and diagnosis of lacrimal gland adenocarcinoma that developed 20 years after external beam radiotherapy in the treatment of bilateral retinoblastoma. Visual acuity, slit lamp biomicroscopy, fundus color photography, nuclear magnetic resonance, lateral orbitotomy and histological analysis are described.
Ionising radiation and lens opacities in interventional physicians: results of a German pilot study
2019
We assessed the feasibility of an epidemiological study on the risk of radiation-related lens opacities among interventional physicians in Germany. In a regional multi-centre pilot study associated with a European project, we tested the recruitment strategy, a European questionnaire on work history for the latter dosimetry calculation and the endpoint assessment. 263 interventional physicians and 129 non-exposed colleagues were invited. Questionnaires assessed eligibility criteria, risk factors for cataract, and work history relating to occupational exposure to ionising radiation, including details on type and amount of procedures performed, radiation sources, and use of protective equipmen…
Radiation effects on light scattering and cataract formation in the lenses of interventional radiologist and cardiologists
2014
Purpose There is little information about exposure to dosages below 500 mSv. This pilot study aimed at investigating the effects of low dose radiation on lens transparency in occupationally exposed interventional cardiologists and radiologists. Methods Physicians who have performed fluoroscopically guided procedures for at least 5 years were recruited in the areas of Cologne-Bonn and Rhine-Main together with their non-exposed colleagues. A questionnaire has been developed to estimate occupational exposure. Exclusion criteria comprised corticosteroid treatment, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and glaucoma. Changes in lens transparency and cataract formation were determined by slit lamp microscopy…
