Description

Radiological Risk Management is an important method to be implemented in the RTP in the early stages of radiation control. The goal is to reduce exposure to radiation and to avoid undesirable risk because of the exposure from happening. This paper outlines the evolution of the Radiological Risk Management that was implemented and adopted in the RTP and the advantages gained when it is implemented. In addition, this paper also describes in detail how the relationship between the dose-risk and measures to develop risk management is to ensure it is dealt with more systematically and responsibly. Finally, how the framework established and implemented is also outlined in this paper. (author)
