الملخص EN

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the patient's dose during cardiac catheterization at Al Assad University Hospital and Cardiac Surgery Center in Damascus.

A sample of 300 patients with 195 males and 105 females of different ages was studied.

In the case of diagnosis and treatment by cardiac catheterization, the measurement was done using the DAP scale within the device.

The estimated dose for the patient (125mGy/min), was higher than the recommended DRL:(Dose Reference Level) for continuous high-end fluoroscopic endoscopy (100 mGy / min).

Furthermore, the study of the relationship of radiation dose to the mass index and the different parameters of cardiac catheterization system, which include voltage difference, current intensity and time of exposure, indicated the increase of radiation dose with the above parameters
