BACKGROUND • The utilization of radiation in medicine for diagnosis and treatment dates from BACKGROUND • The utilization of radiation in medicine for diagnosis and treatment dates from the 19 th century, almost from the time x-rays and radioactivity were discovered • Now its use is deeply embedded in medical practice. For many purposes, it is indispensable – both for diagnosis and for treatment Radiation Medicine 2 International Atomic Energy Agency
