Introduction to Radiation Safety and Radiobiology

Описание к видео Introduction to Radiation Safety and Radiobiology

This lecture is an introduction to radiation safety and radiobiology, which is geared toward medical students, residents, fellows, and practicing physicians. My goal is to provide an evidence-based overview with the hope of increasing awareness of patient and operator safety as it pertains to ionizing radiation for medical imaging.

In this video, I a) provide an overview of the chemistry & physics of radiation safety, b) introduce basic units of radiation, c) detail medical & non-medical sources of ionizing radiation, d) highlight effects of radiation exposure, and e) discuss methods of reducing patient and provider ionizing radiation exposure.
