Now, some scientists even say low radiation doses may be beneficial.

The risk of extremely high radiation doses to workers has been the main problem to be overcome.

In earlier times when higher radiation doses were used, the failure rate was about 12% (which then required surgery).

These are meant to be examples only, not a comprehensive list of possible radiation doses.

Radiation dose per person from medical X-rays has increased almost 500 percent since 1982.

There is always a trade-off between radiation dose and image quality.

The health consequences can be severe, even at radiation doses too low to make the mother sick.

The amount of energy lost to the material per unit weight is referred to as the 'radiation dose'.

This is done so that the doctor can identify how to best deliver the right radiation dose for each patient.

However, the higher the frame rate, the higher the radiation dose.

The total dose of radiation and how it is given.

Certainly, anyone working their would have got a lifetime's dose of radiation, in a very short time.

It is fast and uses very low doses of radiation.

And still others say that low doses of radiation are actually beneficial.

Now, some scientists even say low radiation doses may be beneficial.

"Do you think anybody could have survived such high doses of radiation?"

They think that a low dose of radiation is no problem.

The risk of extremely high radiation doses to workers has been the main problem to be overcome.

Their sensitivity allows a lower dose of radiation for a given picture quality than film.

If workers had been in the vicinity, they would have received high doses of radiation.
