About
Nivedita Rana is a dedicated researcher in the field of medical imaging and radiation safety, with a primary focus on positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT)-guided interventional procedures. Her work centers on quantifying and mitigating radiation exposure—both to healthcare personnel and to patients—during these advanced diagnostic and biopsy techniques. In her highly cited 2018 study, Rana provided critical estimates of the radiation burden for staff performing robotic arm-assisted PET/CT-guided biopsies, offering foundational data that helps shape safer clinical practices. She further extended this line of inquiry in 2022 by evaluating patient radiation doses during the same procedures, addressing a key gap in patient safety knowledge. Although her citation counts are modest, her contributions are significant for the niche but vital area of radiation dosimetry in interventional nuclear medicine. Rana’s research directly informs the development of protective protocols and equipment design, making her a valuable voice in the ongoing effort to balance diagnostic accuracy with occupational and patient safety in modern PET/CT-guided interventions.
