Factors that affect the effects of radiation are the dose, duration and the presence or absence of protection.
Radiation is present in many medical imaging examinations and can cause damage to the body. Radiation effects are mainly related to the dose, time and protection of radiation, and attention to the control of these factors can ensure the safety of imaging examinations.
Taking X-ray examination as an example, one should not use more than the permissible irradiation dose to avoid radioactive damage; each time of X-ray irradiation should not be too long, the number of times should not be too many, and should try to avoid repeating the examination; the use of lead-containing protective clothing and other high-density substances to protect the sensitive parts of the body, and so on.
If there is any discomfort or need, it is recommended to seek medical advice and consultation in a timely manner.
