Principles for Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection [PDF]
Abstract In this statement, the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) presents its principles for protection against adverse health effects from exposure to non-ionizing radiation. These are based upon the principles for protection against ionizing radiation of the International Commission for Radiological ...

Application of Lead Substitute Shielding Materials for X and Gamma-Rays Attenuation in Diagnostic Radiology: A Review Article [PDF]
Lead is the most widely used material for radiation protection in diagnostic radiology because its ability to attenuate x-rays is superior to other materials due to its high atomic number, high density, and its higher economic affordability.

Guidelines for limiting exposure to electromagnetic fields (100 kHz to 300 GHz) [PDF]
Radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (EMFs) are used to enable a number of modern devices, including mobile telecommunications infrastructure and phones, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth. As radiofrequency EMFs at sufficiently high power levels can adversely affect

Effect of Dose Irradiation on the Expression of BRCA1 and BRCA2Genes in MCF-10A and MCF-7 cell lines [PDF]
Introduction: Breast cancer can be caused by a mutation in its genome. Some mutations are cancer-predisposition which exist at the moment of germ cell genesis. It has been discovered that BRCA1 and BRCA2 are linked to hereditary breast cancer.

Gaps in knowledge relevant to the "Guidelines for limiting exposure to time-varying electric and magnetic fields (1 Hz-100 kHz)" [PDF]
Sources of low-frequency fields are widely found in modern society. All wires or devices carrying or using electricity generate extremely low frequency (ELF) electric fields (EFs) and magnetic fields (MFs), but they decline rapidly with distance to the ...
