Title: Nurses and ionizing radiation: A study of two institutions

Journal Article · · Critical Care Nurse; (USA)
OSTI ID:7014070

The results of this study revealed that the nurses studied were exposed to ionizing radiation at levels defined as safe. However, since the actual exposure level that increases health risks is unknown, it is recommended that critical care nurses take as many precautions as possible to minimize exposure that, over the long run, could have deleterious effects.
