  • Title: Radiation safety and protection.
    Author: Grzywacz RB.
    Journal: Clin Podiatr Med Surg; 1988 Oct; 5(4):759-66. PubMed ID: 3071407.
    Abstract:
    Often overlooked are the consequences of low-level radiation. This article increases awareness of the short- and long-term effects of x-rays on the podiatrist, his staff and patients. Protection can be achieved for all concerned by using the radiographic techniques, low-cost ways for dosage reduction, and monitoring devices discussed. A good x-ray examination should always provide the best diagnostic information while minimizing risk.
