TASK 11. Principle of IRMER Ionising radiation regulation 1999: This regulation ensure that exposure to ionising radiationsis kept as minimum as possible. Ionising radiation regulation 2000: It aims at preventing harmful and hazardous impact ofradiations on living beings and environment. ALARP: It stands for “As low as reasonably practicable” and states that risk must be reduced tothis level. 2. Ionising radiations Safe use of x-ray equipment: Proper training must be taken before using the machine andshielding must be checked before turning on the equipment. A safe distance must be maintainedfrom the equipment. Ionising radiation hazards: The exposure to these radiations can cause skin burn, cancer andseveral others genetic disorders (Iannucci and Howerton, 2016). Role of dental personnel when using ionising radiation: Dental personnel must follow thesafety standards related to the radiations so that ALARP can be followed. TASK 21.
