Just under half of man's exposure to external natural radiation comes from?
Cosmic Radiation
What are characteristics of radiation?
There are five characteristics of radiation. They are time delay, penetration power, ionization, fluorescence emission and film exposure. Radiation can also be used in treatment by internal contamination or external exposure in case of emergency.
What are the source of radiation?
Cosmic radiation External terrestrial and internal radiation
What happens in external radiation therapy?
In external radiation therapy a beam of radiation is directed from outside the body at the cancer

Internal Radiation Internal radiation is a less common method of giving radiation. It is being studied for use after lumpectomy.
How is radiation therapy administered?
Radiation therapy is delivered via external radiation or via internal radiation therapy (the implantation/injection of radioactive substances).
