Radiation protecton of the patients in nuclear medicine
Exposure to the ionising radiation for medical purposes (diagnostic and therapeutic) gives significant contribution to the public exposure. Medical exposure includes the exposure of the individuals for their own diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, than to individuals such as family members and close friends of the patient helping in the hospitals or at home and the third group are the volunteers who are involved in the programme of biomedical or clinical research which not provides direct benefit to the volunteers. Nowadays the average exposure to the public from medical diagnostic procedures is 12.5% of the natural exposure and around 97% of all man made ionising radiation exposure. The basic principles of radiation protection for medical exposure are: medical exposure should be justified by weighing the diagnostic or therapeutic benefits they produce against the radiation detriment they might cause and doses from medical exposure should be the minimum necessary to achieve required diagnostic objective and the minimum to the normal tissue for the therapeutic objective. In this paper radiation protection of the patients in nuclear medicine will be discussed according to the fact that unsealed radioactive substances are administered to the patients for diagnosis, treatment or research. The radiation exposure results from the radiopharmaceuticals administered to the patients.
