The aim of this study was to evaluate dose area product (DAP) and skin dose to patients undergoing coronary angiography (CA) and percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) using GafChromic XR film at King Khalid Hospital, Najran, Saudi Arabia. The entrance skin doses (ESDs) were calculated from DAP using GafChromic XR film placed on the patients back. The mean DAP obtained for patients undergoing CA and PTCA examinations were found to be 31.4 and 74.2 Gy cm2, respectively. The mean ESD using GafChromic XR film was found to be 0.264 and 0.596 Gy for CA and PTCA examinations, respectively.
