A small amount over a short period of time may be harmless. To answer whether a specific exposure is harmful or harmless, scientists focus on quantifying and measuring the dose. There are two ways of expressing the dose. The first is the absorbed dose. This is a measure of the total amount of ionizing radiation energy absorbed by an object.

Radiation therapy uses ionising radiation for treatment. The incidence of cancer is about 40%, reflecting long life expectancy. Cancer also leads to ~ 20-30 per cent cumulative mortality. Current medical practice uses radiotherapy in about 1/2 of newly diagnosed cancer cases. Therapeutic techniques can be highly complex, and place very high

Gamma and x-rays, as well as UV radiation near a 100 nm wavelength, have sufficient energy to ionize molecules and are, therefore, considered to be ionizing radiation. In general, the UV portion of the spectrum is not included in the ionizing region because UV at wavelengths less than 295 nm are filtered by the atmosphere.

The risk depends on the total amount of radiation you absorb and how harmful that type of radiation is. Another dose unit: 1 Rem = 10-2 Sv; Rentgen units are based on the ionising effect of the radiation. 1 Rentgen = 2.58 x 10-4 C kg-1 (charge produced in coulombs per kilogram of material) Measurement of r adioactive contamination

Jan 08, 2019Internal radiation therapy with a solid source is called brachytherapy. In this type of treatment, seeds, ribbons, or capsules that contain a radiation source are placed in your body, in or near the tumor. Like external beam radiation therapy, brachytherapy is a local treatment and treats only a specific part of your body.
