Radiation-induced Skin Injuries

Although rare, radiation- induced skin injuries continue to happen and our collaborative work is helping other countries detect and report them. The latest paper in 2017 is:

• Lessons from two cases of radiation induced skin injuries in fluoroscopic procedures in Bulgaria

Earlier publications include:

• Radiation skin injury caused by percutaneous coronary intervention, report of 3 cases
• Skin injuries in interventional procedures
• I perform more than 100 interventional procedures every year but have never seen radiation-induced skin injury: am I missing something?
