Objective: Exposure of surgeons and nurses to radiation during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) has not been studied in our locality.

The present study is to determine the amount of radiation absorbed by surgeons and nurses while carrying out ERCP.
Methods: We prospectively...
