Establishing national diagnostic reference levels in radiography, mammography, and dual‑energy x‑ray absorptiometry services in Ireland and comparing these with European diagnostic reference levels

The aim of this work was to establish national diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) in Ireland and compare these to existing European DRLs where available. This work surveyed all radiological facilities providing radiography, mammography, and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) services in Ireland.
