Cutaneous cancers in an interventional cardiologist: a cautionary tale.

Abstract:

:This case report documents the presentation of a disabling ionizing radiation (IR)-related illness (multiple basal cell carcinoma [BCC] syndrome) in a 50-year-old interventional cardiologist. This case emphasizes the need for interventionalists to: (1) understand the occupational hazards of IR; (2) recognize the failure of existing protective gear to provide sufficient protection from IR; (3) promote strict adherence to IR safety protocols; and (4) call for the development of improved technology for radiation protection.
