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 ...

Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1986
It is essential that emergency physicians understand ways to manage patients contaminated by radioactive materials and/or exposed to external radiation sources. Contamination accidents require careful surveys to identify the metabolic pathway of the radionuclides to guide prognosis and treatment.

Emergency department radiation accident protocol
Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1980Every emergency department faces the potential problem of handling one or more victims of a radiation accident. While emergency departments near nuclear power plants or isotope production laboratories probably have a detailed protocol for such emergencies, a similar protocol is needed for the emergency department that may have to handle an isolated ...

Nuclear Instruments and Methods, 1980
Abstract Thermoluminescence dosimeters have been used to determine the dose to victims of two serious external radiation accidents. Although these accidents differed significantly in source activity, geometry, exposure time, dose variation (10 to about 106 rad) to the victim, etc., the properties of the LiF dosimetry system were ideally suited for ...

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.
