Radiation-related injuries are rare. Yet the consequences of an event involving a radiation source can be substantial. As with any clinical emergency that rarely occurs, we are typically less prepared to deal with the situation. Compounding the crisis will be the "worried well" population who may believe that they too are contaminated or suffering from

Despite advance radiotherapy techniques, long-term complications of radiation injury are still commonly seen. Acute effects are largely time dependent and can be controlled by alteration of therapy schedule. Chronic effects are dose dependent, and are associated with increased fibrosis and decreased vascularity which can lead to tissue necrosis ...

A case of momentary exposure of the right hand to irradiation from a microwave oven is described. Transient paresthesias and a cold, pale hand resulted but resolved spontaneously in 60 minutes without treatment. Even momentary exposure can result in severe coagulation necrosis, with eventual loss of the exposed extremity.

Since the development of x-rays in the late 19th century, radiation has increasingly been used for diagnostic imaging and various industrial purposes. The human health consequences of radiation exposure can range from minor asymptomatic exposures to the development of potentially fatal acute radiation sickness depending on the characteristics of the ...
