Radiation Training Information from Hunza Pakistan.



Title: Radiation Training Information from Hunza Pakistan.

Official:       yes

Hi fellows,
I am a new Physicist and have been working on radiation protection education to a group of radiographers/residents.
I have covered the following topics in the course  that were conducted over 3 hours. Being a new Physicist I need some input or critical vetting of the course from senior colleagues of mine, that I have designed and have been imparting to medical staff.

The topics were:
   Radiation and its type ie ionizing and non ionizing.
   radiation as used in radiology ie X-ray
   radiation properties
   radiation interaction ie compton effect and photo electric effect.
   Basic Radiation Biology
   Radiation Protection principles ie ALARA, Justification, dose limit and optimisation, time dist.,and         shielding

   Radiation Protection quantities ie Gy, Dose equivalent and Effective DE,
  Radiation Effects, Stochastic and Deterministic effects etc,
  Current dose limits in use.
Is this enough or should I add some more. Please reply.

Best Regards,
Ishtiaq Hussain
