The effects of radiation on biologic systems as manifested through genetic changes have been reviewed. The use of x-radiation by the health professions represents the largest contribution of radiation dose to the people of the United States. It is apparent that the genetic effect of radiation results in the production of chromosomal aberrations and gene mutations. Recognizing this, it becomes mandatory that appropriate measures are instituted to reduce to an absolute minimum the total amount of radiation that patients receive. Strict utilization of all known protective measures and adherence to protective guidelines promulgated by the ICRP and NCRP IS IMPERATIVE. Every attempt must be made to obtain maximal diagnostic yield from all radiation exposures used for diagnostic purposes, thereby assuring maximal benefit for our patients with minimal risk to our ancestors.
