What does not contribute to your annual radiation dose?
Using ultrasound and MRI scans are excellent non-contrubutors to your annual radiation dose. They are radiation-free as opposed to the traditional x-rays. I think this is especially important in relation to medicine because when we go to the doctor we want to get better. Not potentially become ill from the medical procedures.
Why Annual dose limit for radiation workers was reduced from 5R to 2R?
It was decided 5 was too high.

What is the average annual dose of radiation exposure to radiation workers?
There is no average dose as exposure varies from place to place, but anyone working with radiation should consult their Local Rules for guidance, and wear a dosimeter. The IAEA recommended that the annual dose for workers be under 20mSv. (20 milli-sieverts, where 1 sievert (J/kg) is the radiation required to impart 1 joule of energy in 1 kg of matter.) The UK and the EU have very strict guidelines for staff that work with ionising radiation. These are the dose limits that have been set up to help protect staff from unheathy amounts of radiation. Whole Body Dose Limits Per Year: Radiation Workers ages 18 yrs and older = 50 mSv. Trainees aged 18 yrs and older = 1 mSv General public (frequent exposure) = 1 mSv General public (infrequent exposure) = 5 mSv == == == == == ==
What method is used to estimate a radiation dose by measuring the biological response to an absorbed dose of ionizing radiation?
Biodosimetry

What are the concept of prevention of radiation during pregnancy?

Who determines the proper dose of radiation for a particular cancer?
A radiation oncologist
What is the maximum permissible dose for a pregnant x-ray machine operater?
The dose limits for a radiation worker who has notified her employer that she is pregnant are for external radiation exposure, an equivalent dose to the surface of her abdomen for the remainder of her pregnancy of 2 millisieverts; and for internal radiation exposure, 1/20th of the Annual Limit on Intake (ALI) determined by reference to the values set out in the publication entitled "Dose Co-efficients for Intakes of Radionuclides by Workers" being ICRP Publication 68 published for the International Commission on Radiological Protection. The dose limit in a single planned special exposure referred to in regulation 24 (2) is an effective dose of 100 millisieverts.
What effect does high-level-control fluoroscopy have on radiation dose?
High-level-control fluoroscopy increases radiation dose to the patient.
What is the SI derived unit of radiation dose equivalent?
The sievert is the SI derived unit of ionizing radiation dose. The Sv is its abbreviation.
