Radiation Services WA feel that putting radiation exposure into perspective is one of our most important functions. Radiological risks should not be underestimated, but nor should they be exaggerated.
Commonly radiation exposure from workplaces are compared to radiation exposures from medical fields, aircraft travel, and natural background levels.
Rather than explore these details within this RSWATalk, we’d like to share an interesting video from Veritasium. Although this video is somewhat dramatic, it is well produced and offers an interesting perspective on radiation dose.
Given what you’ve just seen and heard in the video it will probably come as no surprise that here at RSWA we advocate making the healthy lifestyle choice to quit smoking.
