Consequences of ionization in human cells include
1. creation of unstable atoms.
2. production of free electrons.

loss of function. - ANSWER-1, 2, 3, 4, & 5
Which of the following is a form of radiation that is capable of
creating electrically charged particles by removing orbital electrons
from the atom of normal matter through which it passes? a.

b. cancel their scheduled procedure because they are not
willing to assume a small chance of biologic damage.
c. suppress any radiation phobia but not risk a small chance of
possible biologic
damage.
d. suppress any radiation phobia and be willing to assume a
small chance of possible biologic damage. - ANSWER-D. Suppress

radiation received from the x-ray to natural background
radiation received. b. avoid the patient's question by changing
the subject.
c. tell the patient that it is unethical to discuss such concerns.
d. refuse to answer the question and recommend that he or she speak
with the referring physician. - ANSWER-A. Respond by using an
estimation based on the comparison of radiation received.
Why should the selection of technical exposure factors for all medical
imaging procedures always follow ALARA?
a. So that referring physicians ordering imaging procedures do not
have to accept responsibility for patient radiation safety.
b. So that radiographers and radiologists do not have to accept
responsibility for patient radiation safety.
c. Because radiation-induced cancer does not appear to have a
dose level below which individuals would have no chance of
developing this disease.
d. Because radiation-induced cancer does have a dose level at
which individuals would have a chance of developing this disease. -
ANSWER-C. Because radiation-induced cancer does not appear to
have a dose level below which individuals would have no chance of
developing this disease.

1. Because the received dose is specified in a number of different
units of measure
2. Because the scientific units for radiation dose are normally not
comprehensible by a patient
3. Because the patient should not receive any information about
radiation dose
a. 1 and 2 only
