Abstract
The transposition of EU Directive 2013/59/Euratom into German law requires that patients be informed about the radiation risk of radiological procedures. Such information is not the same as a medical informed consent about immediate risks associated with the procedure, such as deterministic radiation damage, risks of contrast media, or complications. The sole use of X‑rays in diagnostic procedures therefore requires no informed consent in most cases.
