This book was released on 1975 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This report is a position statement of the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) on issues that have emerged as a result of the 'recent' (1972) publication of reports by the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation and the National Academy of Sciences Advisory Committee on the Biological Effects of Ionizing Radiations treating the estimation of the risks arising from exposure to ionizing radiation. Although these 'recently' published materials have essentially reached the same numerical results for radiation levels at which observations are available, there have been differences in philosophy and divergent conclusions regarding the estimation of the risk associated with low-level, low dose rate radiation, for which little or no data are available. Further, and perhaps more importantly, widely varying interpretations of the significance and meaning of these reports and conclusions have been formulated. In an endeavor to consider carefully the implications of the various 'new' recommendations in relation to 'current' NCRP radiation protection philosophy, the Board of Directors of the Council determined to undertake an intensive analysis of the published materials and the underlying background. To initiate this work, the NCRP constituted the Ad Hoc Committee on Comparison of Radiation Protection Philosophies. The Committee developed background material for consideration of this topic by the Board of Directors of the Council. The Board determined that a formulation of the NCRP's position would constitute an important contribution and, utilizing the material developed by the Ad Hoc Committee, together with review by the Council, produced this report." --From Preface, page iii.

This book was released on 1996-04-08 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does radiation medicine need more regulation or simply better-coordinated regulation? This book addresses this and other questions of critical importance to public health and safety. The issues involved are high on the nation's agenda: the impact of radiation on public safety, the balance between federal and state authority, and the cost-benefit ratio of regulation. Although incidents of misadministration are rare, a case in Pennsylvania resulting in the death of a patient and the inadvertent exposure of others to a high dose of radiation drew attention to issues concerning the regulation of ionizing radiation in medicine and the need to examine current regulatory practices. Written at the request from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), Radiation in Medicine reviews the regulation of ionizing radiation in medicine, focusing on the NRC's Medical Use Program, which governs the use of reactor-generated byproduct materials. The committee recommends immediate action on enforcement and provides longer term proposals for reform of the regulatory system. The volume covers Sources of radiation and their use in medicine. Levels of risk to patients, workers, and the public. Current roles of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, other federal agencies, and states. Criticisms from the regulated community. The committee explores alternative regulatory structures for radiation medicine and explains the rationale for the option it recommends in this volume. Based on extensive research, input from the regulated community, and the collaborative efforts of experts from a range of disciplines, Radiation in Medicine will be an important resource for federal and state policymakers and regulators, health professionals involved in radiation treatment, developers and producers of radiation equipment, insurance providers, and concerned laypersons.
