Data submitted for the IGIP survey in 2019 are summarised below.
Submissions were received from 21 facilities incorporating 42 interventional rooms. A total of 47 surveys were submitted, with data from procedures for 1278 patients.
Facility reference levels (FRLs) were computed for all surveys that included at least 10 patients. The data for coronary angiography are presented below as this was the only protocol with sufficient data.
