The design of radiation accident registry [PDF]
Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2010 In order to provide effective monitoring and follow-up on the health effects of individuals accidentally exposed to ionising radiation, a Radiation Accident Registry (RAR) has been designed and constructed as an extension to the existing National Dose Registry (NDR). The RAR has basic functions of recording, monitoring and reporting.

The aftermath of a radiation accident [PDF]
Journal of Radiation Oncology, 2014 As no amount of preparation can render one as fully equipped for an earthquake or a tsunami and so it is that nothing learned can help a radiation oncologist effectively handle the threats of a serious mishap during the treatment of a patient. Despite our comprehensive and exhaustive informed consent process, it serves no weight for the patient and ...

The micronucleus assay in radiation accidents.
Annali dell'Istituto superiore di sanita, 2009 The cytokinesis-block micronucleus assay in peripheral blood lymphocytes is a standardised and validated technique for biodosimetry. Automated scoring of micronuclei allows large scale applications as in population triage in case of radiation accidents or malevolent use of radioactive sources.

[Radiation accidents and radiation disasters].
Tidsskrift for den Norske laegeforening : tidsskrift for praktisk medicin, ny raekke, 1993 Accidents and disasters involving ionizing radiation are rare. Such accidents may occur not only at nuclear power stations but also in medicine and in industry. Only fairly large radiation doses can give acute medical effects. Symptoms and signs depend on the actual dose, and on what parts of the body are irradiated.

Consequences of Radiation Accidents
Annals of Plastic Surgery, 2004Radiation injury attributable to radiotherapy is a topic that has attracted ample attention in the literature, especially in a vast number of publications in plastic surgery. However, the literature is clearly devoid of compilations regarding the effects of ionized radiation accidents. A case of a radiation accident is presented.

The Fukushima Radiation Accident
Health Physics, 2012The March 2011 radiation accident in Fukushima, Japan, is a textbook example of a radiation accident of global significance. In view of the global dimensions of the accident, it is important to consider the lessons learned. In this context, emphasis must be placed on consequences for planning appropriate medical management for radiation accidents ...

Radiation Accidents and Their Management
Radiation Research Supplement, 1967Radiation accidents have been a valuable source of information on radiation effects in man (1-9). As contrasted with studies of therapeutic radiation, the accidents usually involve normal people. Furthermore, the follow-up clinical and laboratory studies of accident victims are almost always carried out with great thoroughness.
