Master the basic principles and techniques of radiation safety!
Radiation Protection in Medical Radiography, 9th Edition makes it
easy to understand both basic and complex concepts in radiation
protection, radiobiology, and radiation physics. Concise,
full-color coverage discusses the safe use of ionizing radiation in
all imaging modalities, including the effects of radiation on
humans at the cellular and systemic levels, regulatory and advisory
limits for exposure to radiation, and the implementation of
radiation safety practices for patients and personnel. From a team
of authors led by radiologic technology educator Mary Alice
Statkiewicz Sherer, this text also prepares you for success on the
ARRT certification exam and state licensing exams. Clear and
concise writing style covers key concepts in radiation protection,
biology, and physics in a building-block approach progressing from
basic to more complex. Convenient, easy-to-use features make
learning easier with chapter outlines and objectives, listing and
highlighting of key terms, and bulleted summaries. Full-color
illustrations and photos depict important concepts, and tables make
information easy to reference. Timely coverage of radiation
protection regulations addresses radiation awareness and education
efforts across the globe. Chapter summaries and review questions
allow you to assess your comprehension and retention of the most
important information, with answers on the Evolve companion
website. NEW! Updated content reflects the latest ARRT and ASRT
curriculum guidelines. NEW! Updated NCRP and ICRP content includes
guidelines, regulations, and radiation quantities and units,
explaining the effects of low-level ionizing radiation,
demonstrating the link between radiation and cancer and other
diseases, and providing the regulatory perspective needed for
practice.
