When exposure to ionizing radiation causes proliferation to the white blood cells, the radiation induced disease that occurs is:

The ICRP is considered the international authority on the safe use of sources of ionizing radiation.

Cataracts, leukemia and genetic mutations are examples of measurable radiation induced biologic damage.

Some examples of late reactions are:1. Cataracts2. Organ atrophy3. Nausea and vomiting4.Reduced Fertility

In humans radiation induced________ may take 5 or more years to develop.

For radiation workers, such as a medical imaging personnel, occupational risk is equated with occupational risk in which of the following?

Which of the following is a stochastic effect? 1. Heredity Effects 2. Carcinogenesis 3. Reduce fertility

Which of the following organizations provide radiation protection standards? I.   ICRP II.  NCRP III. FDA

Information obtained from a radiation dose response curve can be used to predict the risk of malignancy in human populations exposed to low levels of ionizing radiation.

For individual members of the general public not occupationally exposed, the NCRP recommends an annual effective dose limit of ______for continous (or frequent) exposures from artifical sources of ionizing radiation other than medical irradiation and natural background and a limit of ______annually for infreqent exposures.
