Description

The work aims to determine the equivalent dose received by patients in Cienfuegos province in each medical procedure. This evaluation is the first one of its type in the province and constitutes the starting point for further studies. Hence although absorbed doses are calculated by each organ and tissue, it estimates the most effective dose to be able to compare different groups exposed so as to evaluate the detriment on health provoked by these tests
