Abstract
The Image Gently, Step Lightly campaign is an education and awareness campaign focusing on radiation safety in pediatric interventional radiology. To promote radiation safety by standardizing workflow and encouraging team responsibility, the campaign Website includes a procedural checklist that the medical team may use to review radiation safety steps before each pediatric interventional procedure. Use of this checklist can be an effective tool in the ongoing effort to maximize radiation safety during interventional procedures.
