This book provides information on current measures to protect oneself against the risks of ionising radiation. It also explains the legal reasons, the physical basis and the biological necessity for these measures, to motivate compliance with them. In addition, it gives a strategy - the source oriented strategy - that the worker can use to make the right choices for the necessary precautions when there are no rules or regulations to rely on. To make the book as practical as possible, unnecessary theoretical and technical items have been avoided.<br />This 3rd English edition represents the English version of the recent 7th edition of the Dutch book 'Praktische Stralingshygiene', ISBN 978 90 77423 99 8. It can be used in other European countries, as most radiation protection measures to be taken by workers are the same everywhere, and the only items that can be country-specific ('rules' in Chapters 6 and 'radioactive waste' in Chapter 11) are treated from the perspective of the European Council Directive 96/29/EURATOM. In this edition there are changes in all chapters.

Paperback
The first chapters treat in successive order the physical backgrounds, the measurement apparatuses, the quantities and units used in radiation protection, the hazards of ionising radiation, and the measures that are already taken by the Dutch Government and the formulas to assess your own dose. In the Chapters 9, 10 and 11 the authors describe the measures the worker himself can take for sealed sources and X-ray equipment, for open sources and for medical applications. The new Chapter 11 describes practical radiation hygiene in a medical setting. This chapter is intended for employees who do not get information about radiation protection during their education, such as medical specialists (not radiologists), nurses, medical receptionists, research workers and technical support personnel. In this book the rules and regulations as from February 2018 are described, when the new radiation protection basic safety standards `Euratom Directive` was implemented in the Dutch law. This book is a translation of the Dutch publication Praktische stralingshygiëne, ISBN 9789491764295.
