Section I: Theory and ConceptsChapter 1: Radiobiology HistoryChapter 2: Cellular Anatomy and PhysiologyChapter 3: Cellular Effects of RadiationSection II: Biological Effects of Radiation ExposureChapter 4: Effects of Initial Exposure to RadiationChapter 5: Effects of Long-term Exposure to RadiationSection III: Radiation ProtectionChapter 6: Protection of PersonnelChapter 7: Protection of Patients

Summary: Offers an overview of radiation biology and protection concepts. This title helps you learn both why and how to protect yourself and patients from ionizing radiation. It emphasizes on integrating the theory of radiation protection as seen in radiobiology with radiation protection as it should be practiced in the clinical education setting. Summary: From the Publisher: "this text offers a[n] ... overview of radiation biology and protection concepts. It teaches both why and how to protect yourself and patients from ionizing radiation. Emphasis is placed on integrating the theory of radiation protection as seen in radiobiology with radiation protection as it should be practiced in the clinical education setting. The text discusses cell structure, the direct and indirect effects of radiation at the cellular level, biological effects of radiation exposure, and protection practices for both patients and personnel. Current regulations and recommendations are in compliance with the educational requirements established by the American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT)."
