Health Aspects of Radio Frequency Radiation Accidents. PART II: A Proposed Protocol for Assessment of Health Effects in Radio-Frequency Radiation Accidents
Source abstract
Abstract
A protocol is proposed for the assessment of health effects following a radio-frequency radiation accident. The protocol is intended to ensure uniform recording of exposure and medical data. This should meet the requirements of the individuals exposed as well as contributing to scientific knowledge. Difficult aspects about the collection of exposure and medical data are discussed and the need to consider the feelings of the exposed individual(s) is emphasized.
