Medical students’ awareness of radiation exposure related to radiological imaging procedures
Introduction. Current advancements in fields of medical sciences resulted in an increase of imaging examinations with a use of ionising radiation. Such increase leads to justified concerns about its possible consequences. Aim. Assessment of awareness and

Different biological effectiveness of ionising and non-ionising radiations in mammalian cells [PDF]
It has been discussed ever since among the scientific communities, whether non-ionising radiation can alter or harm biological systems. While the mechanisms of underlying effects of ionising radiation are well understood and described here, there is less

A survey of radiation safety training among South African interventionalists
Background. Ionising radiation is increasingly being used in modern medicine for diagnostic, interventional and therapeutic purposes. There has been an improvement in technology, resulting in lower doses being emitted.

Control of Neuroinflammation through Radiation-Induced Microglial Changes
Microglia, the innate immune cells of the central nervous system, play a pivotal role in the modulation of neuroinflammation. Neuroinflammation has been implicated in many diseases of the CNS, including Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease.

Mutational signatures in tumours induced by high and low energy radiation in Trp53 deficient mice
Mutational signatures induced by ionising radiation remain largely unexplored. Here in TP53 mutant mice, the authors characterise the genomic landscape of tumours induced by high- and low-energy radiation.

Determining the mean year value of radon in the indoor air [PDF]
This paper describes how Denmark has implemented the directive 2013/59/EURATOM, laying down basic safety standards for protection against the dangers caused by exposure to ionising radiation. Ionising radiation develops from radon. Furthermore, the paper
