About this statute

La autoridad sanitaria competente debe vigilar el cumplimiento de este real decreto y, si hace falta, proponer medidas correctoras. Noncompliance with this royal decree is treated as an administrative offence in health or public health matters and may be sanctioned after the relevant administrative proceedings. Medical exposures must be under the clinical responsibility of an authorized healthcare professional, with duties to justify, optimize, inform, obtain consent, and coordinate as described in the article. This article assigns specific responsibility to specialists in diagnostic and therapy units for checking indications, supervising procedures, and issuing reports. A hospital radiophysics specialist must advise and take part in radiation physics, dosimetry, protection, equipment, quality, incident review, and training tasks in health centres using ionizing radiation.
