Radiation Risk Assessment

Radiation risk assessment evaluates the potential health effects of exposure to radiation, considering factors like dose, duration, and type of radiation. It estimates the likelihood of adverse outcomes, such as cancer or tissue damage, helping to establish safe exposure levels and guiding safety measures. The process involves scientific research, dose-response modeling, and understanding individual or population vulnerabilities. Overall, it aims to protect public health by ensuring radiation levels remain within limits that minimize risks while enabling beneficial uses of radiation technologies.
