This questionnaire consisted of two parts. The first part includes demographic information such as age, gender, etc. and the second part consists of ۳۲ questions to evaluate the level of knowledge, attitude and practice of radiation protection among participants.

Based on the results, there was a significant relationship between gender and knowledge (p=۰.۰۲) so that men had more knowledge than women. There was a significant relationship between knowledge with age (p=۰.۰۰۵) and with the level of education (p=۰.۰۳). There was also a significant relationship between attitude and age (p=۰.۰۰۲), level of education (p=۰.۰۲۱) and work experience (p=۰.۰۲). There is no significant relationship between practice and gender (p=۰.۰۹), level of education (p=۰.۳۵) and work experience (p=۰.۴۵). But on the other hand, there is a significant relationship between practice and age (p=۰.۰۴۶).Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, the knowledge and attitude of the OR staffs regarding radiation protection were evaluated as favorable, but the practice and clinical competence of the staffs regarding radiation protection were evaluated as unfavorable.
