No, there is none at all. Shielding can be placed around it to limit exposure, but it has no effect on what the substance is emitting.
technetium gives off gamma radiation.
Yes they are. Nearly all kinds of electromagnetic radiation are emitted during radioactive decay
I would expect the total radiation to be equal to the sum of the individual radiations.
Radiation injuries are caused by ionizing radiation emitted by sources such as the sun, x-ray and other diagnostic machines, tanning beds, and radioactive elements

Dosimetry
Electromagnetic radiation in the form of thermal radiation is emitted as any substance, including iron, gets hot.
The initial atom is transformed in another atom.
Electromagnetic radiation in the form of thermal radiation is emitted as any substance, including iron, gets hot.
The glow emitted by a substance exposed to external radiation is called fluorescence (Penn Foster page 64 of the Light Study Guide.
