Abstract
In our experience, the HOR increases the amount of absorbed radiation for both patients and surgeons. The radioprotection seminars are of utmost importance to provide a continued training and optimize the use of ionizing radiation while using an HOR. Despite the awareness of the surgical team in the radioprotection field, the amount of absorbed radiation using an HOR is higher than the one using a C-Arm unit.
