The risk of radiation exposure from a mammogram is considered minimal and not significant. Experts are unanimous that any negligible risk is by far outweighed by the potential benefits of mammography.
The risk of radiation exposure from a mammogram is considered virtually nonexistent. Experts are unanimous that any negligible risk is far outweighed by the potential benefits of mammography.
The benefits of workplace design and risk assessment
Robots are at risk of damage from radiation in space. However, they are at less risk than living creatures because they don't have DNA.
the contain radiation
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 necessary risk with benefits that outweigh the costs
The most common risk associated with radiation exposure is the increased likelihood of developing cancer. Ionizing radiation can damage DNA within cells, leading to mutations that may result in tumor formation over time. The risk is dose-dependent, meaning that higher levels of exposure generally correlate with a greater risk of cancer. Other potential risks include acute radiation sickness at very high exposures, but cancer risk remains the primary concern for lower levels of radiation.
