Radioactive Decay Remember that radioactive decay is a random process which cannot be predicted or determined for a single atom. The rate of decay is controlled by the amount of nuclei present so over time the activity decreases exponentially This means that in a set time period the activity w...
[15] and the European Committee for Radiation Risk, set up by the Greens in the European Parliament, will shortly be publishing a document on The Health Effects of Ionising Radiation Exposure at Low Doses and Low Dose Rates for Radiation Protection Purposes.[16] The development of this debate...
Therefore, besides the absorbed dose, additional parameters need to be taken into account when considering the response to a treatment with ionising radiation, including the tumour biology [35]. The interpretation of the correlation between absorbed dose and biological effect depends on where the ...
