Icrp Publication 93: Managing Patient Dose in Digital Radiology
ISBN: 9780080444697 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 76 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Digital techniques have the potential to improve the practice of radiology but they also risk the overuse of radiation. The main advantages of digital imaging, i.e. wide dynamic range, post processing, multiple viewing options, and electronic transfer and archiving possibilities, are clear but overexposures can occur without an adverse impact on image quality. In conventional radiography, excessive exposure produces a black film. In digital systems, good images are obtained for a large range of doses. It is very easy to obtain (and delete) images with digital fluoroscopy systems, and there...

ICRP Publication 94 : Release of Patients after Therapy with Unsealed Radionuclides
ISBN: 9780080445601 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 84 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. After some therapeutic nuclear medicine procedures with unsealed radionuclides, precautions may be needed to limit doses to other people, but this is rarely the case after diagnostic procedures. Iodine-131 results in the largest dose to medical staff, the public, caregivers, and relatives. Other radionuclides used in therapy are usually simple beta emitters (e.g. phosphorus-32, strontium-89, and yttrium-90) that pose much less risk. Dose limits apply to exposure of the public and medical staff from patients. Previously, the ICRP has recommended that a source-related dose constraint for...

Protecting People Against Radiation Exposure in the Event of a Radiological Attack
ISBN: 9780080446257 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 116 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In the aftermath of an attack, the main aim of radiological protection must be to prevent the occurrence of acute health effects attributable to radiation exposure (termed 'deterministic' effects) and to restrict the likelihood of late health effects (termed 'stochastic' effects) such as cancers and some hereditable diseases. A supplementary aim is to minimise environmental contamination from radioactive residues and the subsequent general disruption of daily life.
The report notes that action taken to avert exposures is a much more effective protective measure than protective... In the aftermath of an attack, the main aim of radiological protection must be to prevent the occurrence of acute health effects attributable to radia...

Icrp Publication 95: Doses to Infants from Ingestion of Radionuclides in Mother′s Milk
ISBN: 9780080446271 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 286 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In the present report, ICRP provides information on radiation doses to the infant due to intakes of radionuclides in maternal milk. As in Publication 88 (ICRP, 2001) on doses to the embryo and fetus following intakes of radionuclides by the mother, intakes by female members of the public and female workers are addressed. Acute and chronic intakes are considered at various times before and during pregnancy as well as during the period of breastfeeding. Dose coefficients per unit intake by the mother (Sv/Bq) are given for the selected radionuclides of the same 31 elements for which age-specific...

Icrp Publication 99: Low-Dose Extrapolation of Radiation-Related Cancer Risk
ISBN: 9780080449586 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 150 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This report considers the evidence relating to cancer risk associated with exposure to low doses of low linear energy transfer radiation, and particularly doses below current recommended limits for protection of radiation workers and the general public. The focus is on evidence regarding linearity of the dose-response relationship for all cancers considered as a group, but not necessarily individually, at low doses the so-called linear, non-threshold (LNT) hypothesis]. It looks at the possibility of establishing a universal threshold dose below which there is no risk of radiation-related...

ICRP Publication 100 : Human Alimentary Tract Model for Radiological Protection
ISBN: 9780080450636 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This report provides reviews of information on the transit of materials through the alimentary tract and on radionuclide retention and absorption. It considers data on health effects, principally in order to specify the target cells for cancer induction within the mucosal lining of the tract and to justify approaches taken to dose averaging within regions. Comparisons are made between doses calculated using the HATM and the Publication 30 model for examples of radionuclide ingestion for which absorption is assumed to occur in the small intestine alone. Examples are also given of the effect on...

Supporting Guidance 5: Analysis of the Criteria Used by the International Commission on Radiological Protection to Justify the Setting of Num
ISBN: 9780080450773 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This report compiles the various numerical protection level values published by the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) since its 1990 Recommendations (Publication 60). Several terms are used to denominate the protection levels: individual dose limit, 'maximum' individual dose, dose constraint, exemption level, exclusion level, action level, or intervention level. The reasons provided by the Commission for selecting the associated numerical values is quoted as far as available. In some cases the rationale is not totally explicit in the original ICRP report concerned; in...
