Radiation Safety Part 4 - Radiation Exposure and Monitoring

        Help!  

Question
Answer
The product of what two factors equals total exposure?   show
🗑
show Answer= 0.2325 mgya (work it out: 0.93 divide by 60 seconds x 15 minutes)  
🗑
CALCULATE: If the radiographer is exposed to 0.62 mgya/h what will be the total occupational exposure after 5 minutes?   show
🗑
What is the unit used to describe ionization in air?   show
🗑
hat unit is used to describe absorbed dose?   show
🗑
show Sv (Sievert)  
🗑
Which "traditional" unit measures the ionization of the air and is used to document leakage ?   show
🗑
show (1) type of radiation, (2) atomic number of tissue (3) mass density of tissue (4) energy of the radiation  
🗑
The acronym "rad" refers to   show
🗑
The acronym "rem" refers to   show
🗑
show rem and SV (absorbed dose x radiation quality factor) = what is on dosimeter report  
🗑
Gy x Wr x Wt = which type of dose   show
🗑
Which portion of this equation "Gy x Wr x Wt =" represents the degree of radiosensitivity of the irradiated organ/tissue?   show
🗑
show Wr  
🗑
Which portion of this equation "Gy x Wr x Wt =" represents the degree of absorbed dose?   show
🗑
Gy x Wr = which type of dose   show
🗑
CFR states that radiation monitoring must be provided for occupationally exposed individuals who are likely to receive more than ___________th (fraction) of the annual dose limit   show
🗑
List four types of personal radiation monitors   show
🗑
show Aluminum Oxide  
🗑
show Lithium Fluoride ( Calcium as well)  
🗑
Which is the most accurate personal dosimeter?   show
🗑
Which type of dosimeter be be used for an immediate reading?   show
🗑
show The control badge  
🗑
show at the collar level, always facing forward to allow filters to give an accurate reading  
🗑
How should a radiation monitor be worn with a lead apron?   show
🗑
show under the lead apron at all times at the level of the waist  
🗑
Where should the control badge be kept?   show
🗑
show The type and energy of radiation  
🗑
Which personal radiation monitor senses material emitting blue light when stimulated by green light?   show
🗑
show 50 msv  
🗑
What does the control badge measure?   show
🗑
show TLD (heats up lithium crystals, gives off heat which will produce light - the more light the more exposure)  
🗑
What is the annual dose limit for exposed individuals younger than 18?   show
🗑
show 5 msv  
🗑
show .5 msv  
🗑
What acronym serves as a reminder to us to keep exposures to the patients and ourselves to a judicious minimum?   show

🗑
show 350 msv  
🗑
The NCRP's recommendation for infrequent exposure to nonoccupationally exposure individuals is ____ annual EfD limit   show
🗑
show 50 msv

🗑
show Minimal dose or Negligible dose. The dose is was either 0 or below the sensitivity level of the dosimeter.  
🗑
Isotopes have a different number of __________   show
🗑
Atoms have the same amount of protons as they do __________   show

🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
