A person exposed to radiation has no chance of survival. true or false?

False. The chances of survival for a person exposed to radiation depend on the type, dose, and duration of exposure. Treatment and medical interventions can help improve survival rates for individuals exposed to radiation.


A person exposed to radiation has no chance for survival?

Think about that next time you go to turn on a light.


Is true that if a person is exposed to radiation he has no chance of survival?

No. It depends on the amount of radiation, and it has to be ionizing radiation, which means ultraviolet or shorter waves. Alternatively, non-ionizing radiation can kill by heating the tissues if the energy intensity is high enough.


Can you be exposed to radiation from a person that just had it?

No, you cannot be exposed to radiation from a person who just received radiation treatment. The radiation used in treatments like chemotherapy or radiotherapy does not linger on the person after treatment, so there is no risk of exposure to others.


Is radiation pneumonitis able to be passed to others?

Radiation pneumonitis is in relation to being exposed to radiation, therefore the only way another person could get this inflammation of the lungs is by having their person exposed to radiation as well.


Is it true that the longer a person is exposed to radiation and the closer the person is to the radiation the greater the risk?

Yes, this is true. The longer a person is exposed to radiation and the closer they are to the source of radiation, the greater their risk of harm. The amount of radiation absorbed by the body is directly related to the duration and proximity of exposure.


A person expose to radiation has no chance to survival?

Depends on the dose. Both total and over the amount received over a specific timescale, but mainly on total dose.


Is a person who has been exposed to external radiation by definition radioactive?

No.


Why is it that a person expose to radiation is no chance for survival?

A person's chances of dying of exposure to radiation depends on how much radiation they are exposed to.Radiation is a naturally occurring phenomenon. We are exposed to radiation through the sun, for example. Radiation is also found in man-made sources (ex. appliances, medical equipment). The human body, however, can only tolerate but so much exposure to radiation at any given time without damage.Radiation is often measured in REMS. Exposure to the sun will yield approximately 5-20 REMS. If exposed to 50-100 REMS of radiation, a person would experience mild radiation poisoning, with symptoms like headache, a temporary lowering of red blood cell count and even temporary male sterility.Between 100-200 REMS, humans experience light radiation poisoning. Symptoms include mild to moderate nausea and vomiting, fatigue, immune system suppression, miscarriage and even death in 10% of cases.Between 200-300 REMS, fatality occurs in 35% of cases.Between 600-1,000 REMS, fatality is almost 100% within 2 weeks of exposure.During the explosion of the power plant Chernobyl in the Soviet Union in 1986, the workers at the plant were exposed to fatal levels of radiation. Estimates are that those who died immediately were exposed to approximately 8,000 REMS of radiation.


Is it possible for a normal person to get cancer?

You don't need to be exposed to radiation, if that's what you mean.


How much natural radiation is the average person exposed to in a year?

The average person is exposed to about 3.1 millisieverts of natural radiation per year. This includes exposure from sources like cosmic rays, radon gas, and natural elements in the soil and air.


What is a dosimeter?

A dosimeter is an instrument that measures the amount of hazardous material to which something or someone has been cumulatively exposed. The most common is the radiation dosimeter, which measures a person's or object's exposure to radiation.
