Radiation Protection Radiation Protection

Remember!
1. Radiation exposure at high acute levels,
e.g. above several thousand of millisieverts
is very dangerous.
2. Radiation exposure at low chronic levels,
e.g. towards tens of millisieverts per year,
presents an extremely low risk.
3. Radiation exposure at very low chronic levels,
e.g. < 1 millisievert per year,
is not an individual health issue.
