A member asked:
What is the radiation exposure dose from ep study??
A doctor has provided 1 answer
EP study: The radiation exposure depends on the MAs used by the flouroscopy and the time of exposure. The exposure will vary by length of time the flouro is on and this isn't uniform for each study. Ask your EP doc for his likely exposure estimate.
