Basic training in radiation protection

Occupational, public and environmental radiation protection is a major challenge in the industrial applications of ionizing radiation. The use of devices emitting ionizing radiation and the handling of radioactive substances are not without risk, and radiation protection measures need to be applied to avoid, minimize and manage the potential detrimental effects following an exposure to ionizing radiation.

This 5-day training course offers an insight into various subjects involved in radiation protection, such as nuclear and radiation physics, radiobiology, detection and dosimetry. Next to the legal and scientific international radiation protection frameworks, the management of natural and artificial radiation sources in industry and healthcare are discussed, including aspects related to waste and disposal, and emergency preparedness.
