“…Computed tomography (CT) is used to guide a wide range of interventional procedures in various locations ranging from biopsies to ablations [ 47 ]. Likewise, positron emission tomography can be used in some indications [ 48 , 49 ]. Apart from the requirements related to radiation exposure, which are the same as in the angio suite, the design of these systems implies that the operator must work near or in the CT tunnel in an awkward or poor posture.…”

Ergonomics in interventional radiology has not been thoroughly evaluated. Like any operators, interventional radiologists are exposed to the risk of work-related musculoskeletal disorders. The use of lead shielding to radiation exposure and the lack of ergonomic principles developed so far contribute to these disorders, which may potentially affect their livelihoods, quality of life, and productivity. The objectives of this review were to describe the different situations encountered in interventional radiology and to compile the strategies both available to date and in development to improve ergonomics.
