Course contents :
Radioprotection : Hygiene problems, 1st year
This course is an introduction to human radiopathology. It considers teh various pathological effects that results from exposure to ionizing ardiations in man.
Learning outcomes of the course :
Radioprotection : Hygiene problems, 1st year
To understand and describe the risks associated with the exposure to ionizing radiations:
Determinist effects
partial irradiation
whole body irradiation
Stochastic effects
genetic effects
radiation-induced cancers
Intra-uterine exposure
Risks associated with low-dose exposure
Prerequisite knowledge and skills :
Radioprotection : Hygiene problems, 1st year
None. The first session is dedicated to a refresher course summarizing the elements of nuclear physics and radiation biology that are necessary to understand this course.
