Comparative Carcinogenicity of Ionizing Radiation and Chemicals
Author: National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements
Publisher: Ncrp
ISBN:
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
Abstract: This report reviews the methodologies used to evaluate the carcinogenic risks of radiation and discusses their applicability for evaluating the carcinogenic risks of chemicals. A review of the status of knowledge concerning the carcinogenic effects of radiation and chemicals, with particular reference to their comparative mechanisms of action and dose-response relationships, was performed. Mathematical models for predicting the carcinogenic risks of radiation and chemicals under exposure conditions where human data are fragmentary or lacking are also reviewed. This report summarizes the cogent evidence and to provide references to authoritative sources for readers seeking further details.

Protection in Nuclear Medicine and Ultrasound Diagnostic Procedures in Children
Author: National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements
Publisher: Ncrp
ISBN:
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 96
Book Description
The use of nuclear medicine and ultrasound in pediatric patients has undergone rapid growth in recent years. As in other branches of the radiological sciences, nuclear medicine practice should minimize radiation dose and, consequently, possible biological damage, provided that necessary information desired from the procedure is not diminished. As no significant biological effects from ultrasound diagnostic studies in pediatric patients have been reported, the implications of use must be treated in a more theoretical context. This Report considers the special problems of radiation protection and the biological effects of radiation associated with pediatric nuclear medicine and the biological implications from studies using ultrasound in pediatric patients. Pediatric patients are affected by different diseases from adults and respond in a different manner to illness. Similarly, the implications of any imposed biological burden are different from those in adult patients. NCRP Report No. 68 has considered the biological effects of conventional radiographic studies in pediatric patients (NCRP, 1981). Nuclear medicine and ultrasound equipment will be considered in general terms with special emphasis on specific application to the pediatric patient. The report includes a section devoted to the estimation of radiation dose, from a selected group of commonly used radionuclides, as derived from several pediatric phantoms. This Report also presents an appendix with an extensive tabulation of mean doses per cumulative activity (S values).
