People cannot see, smell, feel, or taste radiation; so you may not know whether you have been exposed. Police or firefighters will quickly check for radiation by using special equipment to determine how much radiation is present and whether it poses any danger in your area. Low levels of radiation exposure (like those expected from a dirty bomb situation) do not cause any symptoms.

Radiation exposure can be accidental, or it can be part of medical treatment. Exposure could occur during a nuclear accident (as has previously occurred with the Russian Chornobyl nuclear power plant accident). Radiation treatment was given for medical conditions such as enlargement of the tonsils in the 1940-1960s; however, this is no longer done. Radiation treatment is an essential part of the treatment of some cancers that affect children.

If there has been an actual or suspected exposure to a chemical or radiological agent, government officials will set up screening and decontamination locations. This is a place where you will be screened for any agent you may have been exposed to. If it is determined that you have been contaminated, you will be escorted through a decontamination process. This will most likely require you to shed some or all of your clothing, and get sprayed with soap and water.

Radiation can affect the body in a number of ways, and the adverse health effects of exposure may not be apparent for many years. These adverse health effects can range from mild effects, such as skin reddening, to serious effects such as cancer and death, depending on the amount of radiation absorbed by the body (the dose), the type of radiation, the route of exposure, and the length of time a person was exposed.

Dental implants may offer solutions for patients who cannot function adequately with conventional dentures. However, not every patient is a candidate for implants. The decision can be made only after a careful examination by your dentist and discussion of the relative benefits and risks and what the procedure involves. Ask your dentist if implants may be an option for you. Older adults can benefit from many of the options available today for improving the look of a smile.

first you wouldn''t know. There are different symptoms for different germs and chemicals. We recommend doing what you would normally do if you get sick - see your own doctor.

No. You can continue to enjoy the same contact with family and friends without fear of exposing them to radiation. If you are hospitalized for insertion of internal radioactive sources, you will stay in a protected room until the source of radiation is removed. If you need this type of radiation, your doctor will explain it to you in detail.

You are undoubtedly referring to the battery technology that allows the Prism 6000 to play 48 hours on its first charge! In which case, ???only slightly radioactive??? would be a better way of putting it. For the record, the levels of radioactivity of the all DuroSport products fall within acceptable limits for most Eastern European countries. However, as a precaution we do recommend that women do not wear it on their person while pregnant and men do not wear it near their genital region.

Symptoms of mustard exposure may not show up for two to 24 or more hours.

Though the RadDetect? detects gamma, beta, fast-neutron and x-ray radiation, it alerts you only to the presence of radiation, not the specific type of radiation.

During 10 treatments over 5 days, a tiny source of radiation, called a "seed" is placed in the MammoSite balloon and therapeutic radiation is delivered to the area surrounding the lumpectomy cavity. After each radiation treatment, the "seed" is removed. The MammoSite balloon catheter itself has no radioactive material.

If your pet receives external beam radiation therapy your pet is not radioactive after treatment and no special precautions are necessary to protect you from radiation. If your cat receives radioactive iodine to treat hyperthyroidism your pet does have some residual radiation after treatment and we will discuss the appropriate precautions with you.

All radioactive materials are purchased or provided by the Permit Holder. Quantities and isotopes must be authorized under his/her Permit. There is an electronic ordering system for a limited number of isotopes in various aliquots and chemical forms; this is the easiest way to procure isotope 'stock solutions'.

Consumers should examine toothpaste products for labeling that says the product is made in China. FDA suggests that consumers throw away toothpaste with that labeling. We are concerned that these products may contain "diethylene glycol," also known as "diglycol." Please note that no major brands of toothpaste have been involved in this matter.

COMARE's chief concern is population exposure to ionising radiation. No-one escapes exposure to ionising radiation although individual doses may vary considerably. All of us receive doses from cosmic rays (especially when we travel by air), from the small amount of radioactivity within our bodies and from radiation coming from the ground. People that live in areas where there are large quantities of radon gas leaching from the underlying rocks receive an above-average dose from this source.
