This lecture focusses on the second edition of the Guidance Notes for Dental Practitioners on the Safe Use of X-Ray Equipment, which was developed by Public Health England (now the UK Health Security Agency, UKHSA), is published by the College of General Dentistry and sets standards for dental practice in line with the Ionising Radiation Regulations 2017 (IRR17) and Ionising Radiation (Medical Exposure) Regulations 2017 (IRMER17).
The lecture will be delivered by the publication’s editor, Andrew Gulson, who is Principal Radiation Protection Specialist and Dental X-ray Protection Services Technical Manager at UKHSA. A specialist radiation protection scientist and certified radiation protection adviser (RPA), he has worked for Public Health England/UKHSA for 35 years and was instrumental in the development of national guidance on the radiation safety aspects of dental cone-beam CT and hand-held dental X-ray equipment.
