Blood transfusions, protection from infection in damaged organs, and possibly the use of newer stimulants to blood formation can save many victims i
Radiation would not be used as treatment for Hashimoto's disease. However, Hashimoto's disease can be a consequence of exposure to radiation from environmental sources or cancer treatment.
In the field of physics related to health, the term radiation exposure refers to people being exposed to radiation either through laboratory testing or in treatment of diseases.
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.

Radiation exposure safety is the process of preventing or minimizing exposure to radiation, and tracking what does occur.
Radiation personnel wear a small badge containing a film which darkens upon exposure to radiation. These are regularly screened to determine if a dangerous exposure has taken place.
Acute exposure
The results are called acute radiation syndrome. These begin within a day of exposure. There will be GI tract problems, falling blood counts, neurological signs, even death. You are probably aware of radiation treatment for cancer and the loss of hair.
Over exposure to UV can cause cancer. The cancer is of skin.

Badges used to measure exposure to ionizing radiation are usually called radiation dosimeter badges.
While radiation symptoms can occur from a single, prolonged, exposure, the symptoms of radiation are not contagious.
