RADIATION
Thompson reported
deliberate exposure of
finger to the x-ray and
then cautioned against
overexposure.
Thomas Edison gave upon X-
rays, fearing they were too
dangerous after death of his
assistant.
Mihran Kassabian is an american
radiologist who documented his radiation
burns & published a paper on irritant
effect of X-rays.

induced dermatitis, cataract
Effects of Radiation Exposure
• Effects of radiation produced due to ionizing radiation
• Types of Ionizing radiation-
• Directly Ionizing Radiation : Alpha rays & Beta rays.
• Indirectly Ionizing Radiation : Gamma & X rays & Neutrons.
 Depth of Penetration of Ionizing Radiation
2-7cm in air
several meters in air
Very High. Several hundred feet
 Absorbed Dose (D)
Radiation Weighting Factor (WR)
Equivalent Dose(H)
 Tissue Weighting Factor (WT)
Effective Dose (E)
Committed Dose
Collective Dose
Absorbed Dose (D)
• Def: Amount of energy absorbed per unit mass
of medium at the point of interest
• Units:
• Dose 1 (Gy) = 1 joules/kg
• 1Gy= 100 rad
• 1 rad = 100 ergs/g
Radiation Weighting Factor (WR)
• Dimensionless multiplier used to place biologic effects
from exposure to different types of radiation on a
common scale .
Equivalent Dose(H)
•H(Sv)= D(Gy) x WR
•1 Sv of different type of radiation produce same biologic
effect.
• Relative contribution of each tissue or
organ to total detriment resulting from
uniform irradiation of whole body.
Tissue Weighting Factor (WT)
Effective Dose (E)
• Sum of all weighted equivalent doses in all
tissues or organs irradiated.
• Effective Dose= ΣD x WR x WT = ΣT HT WT
Committed Dose
• Committed dose: Total dose delivered throughout period of time for which radionuclide
inside body.
• Committed equivalent dose: Equivalent dose integrated over 50 years.
• Committed effective dose : Effective dose integrated over 50 years.
• Unit: Sievert
Collective Dose
• Collective equivalent dose : Avg equivalent dose to a population X n Persons exposed
• Collective effective dose: Avg effective dose to a population X n Persons exposed
• Unit - person- sievert .
• For population ingesting or inhaling radionuclides depositing dose over prolonged period,
integral of effective dose over entire population to a period of 50 years = Collective
committed effective dose.

NCRP
• Radiation Dose received ∝ Time
• To ensure thorough planning before entering radiation
area
• Have all necessary tools present
• Work efficiently and swiftly.
1. Minimizing Time
2. Maximizing Distance
• Radiation dose follows Inverse
square law
• Dose reduced significantly by
increasing distance from source
• Double the distance, dose rate falls
to Âź .
Half Value Layer
• HVT- thickness of material reducing intensity
of incident radiation into ½
• TVT- Thickness of material reducing
intensity of incident radiation to 1/10
• 1 TVT = 3.3 HVT

3. SHIELDING
• Parameters involved in shielding design (NCRP 151)
1. Establishing dose value (P) in occupied area
2. Estimating dose (D) in occupied area in absence of any shielding
3. Obtaining attenuation factors necessary to reduce dose value from D to P
3. SHIELDING
1. Primary Barrier : irradiated
directly by primary beam
2. Secondary Barrier : irradiated by
a) scatter radiation
b) leakage radiation
 Workload (W)
• No. of patients treated per week x Dose delivered per
patient at 1 m
Occupancy Factor (T)
• Fraction of operating time for which area of interest
occupied by an individual
Distance (d)
• In meters from radiation source to area to be protected.
Use Factor (U)
• For primary barrier -fraction of beam-on time during
which primary beam is directed towards a particular
barrier.

According to BSS given by IAEA
1. Controlled Area
• Specific protection measures and safety
provisions needed
• Defined by physical boundaries.
• Identified with radiation area signs.
• All treatment rooms & Radioactive source
storage room.
• Dose Equivalent Limit: 0.1 rem/week
DESIGN OF RADIATION FACILITIES
2. Supervised Area
• Kept under review
• Specific protection measures not normally needed.
• E.g: areas surrounding brachy patient rooms, around
radioactive source storage & handling areas,
operating consoles,waiting rooms.
• Dose Equivalent Limit: 0.02 rem/week
3. Uncontrolled Area
• Neither controlled nor supervised areas
• Same level of protection as members of public.
•Dose Equivalent Limit: 0.01 rem/week
Features of Good Design in EBRT installation:
• Maze Entrance
• Door Shielding
• Beam Stopper
• LMO
• Warning sign
• Emergency stop
• Patient Monitoring
Maze Entrance
• Maze connects treatment room with
control room.
• Ensures that photon radiation can only
exit room after attenuation by multiple
scattering
• Ideally - As long as and with as small a
cross-section as possible.
• Drastically reduces shielding
requirements of door
• Longer maze (>5 m) to reduce neutron is
fluence at door.
Door Shielding
• If maze absent - door must provide shielding equivalent to wall
surrounding door.
• Low energy accelerators (≤10Mv): Heavy motorized door not
necessary for shielding against scattered photons.
• High energy accelerators (>10 MV): special doors that shield
against neutrons required
• Fast neutrons attenuated efficiently by materials with high
hydrogen content - borated polyethylene.
• Door interlock: to ensure irradiation terminated when door
open
Beam Stopper
• Part of primary shielding incorporated into some
machines
• retractable or permanent
• adequate to attenuate the primary radiation beam
to 0.1% of its original.
• It reduces the need for primary barrier thickness.
• Useful in installations with space constraints
• Made of lead (10-15cm thick)
LAST MAN OUT SWITCH
• Supposed to be pressed by last person exiting treatment room.
• Interlock system remains deactivated unless done so.
• Treatment will commence thereafter.
WARNING SIGNS
• Trefoil sign
• Warning lights
• Audible alarms
EMERGENCY STOP

EMERGENCY SITUATIONS
1. Lost source
2. Stuck source
3. Off-site accidents
LOST SOURCE
• It is critical for this type of event to happen
• An up to date inventory exists so that following can be determined immediately:
• Which sources are missing?
• What is their type and activity?
• Where they were last known to be, and when?
• Who last took possession of the sources?
• Restrict entry of the area where the sources were last known.
• Survey with radiation detection survey meter.
• Source driving mechanism to return source to shielded position
• Tell patient to get up & come out - if he is mobile.
• Restrict area from further entry.
• Obtain emergency T-bar.
• Enter the room, avoiding direct exposure to treatment beam.
• Insert end of T-bar over red indicator rod through head cover.
• Apply firm pressure to T-bar & push source back into fully shielded position.
• If Yellow colored position is entirely inside head cover  fully shielded position.
• If yellow colored position is visible & Red colored position is entirely inside cover Relatively
safe position.
• Inform radiation protection officer.
STUCK SOURCE- TELECOBALT
Stuck source in remote control
brachytherapy units
•Observation of error message at console.
• Recovery from console with emergency stop
• Entry into room with a portable radiation survey meter.
• Opening the door acivates interlock that retracts source.
• Recovery from afterloading unit emergency stop.
