Class Objectives
/Class Outline Radiation is used in medicine and engineering and enriches our lives. However, if used incorrectly, it can also be dangerous and have a large impact on the human body. In this course, students will acquire correct knowledge about radiation and radioactive materials, and learn how to protect themselves by learning radiation protection and radiation measurement methods.

Class Schedule lesson1　Learning the physical properties of radiation and radioactive materials
lesson2　Learn about the penetrating power of radiation through matter and its units
lesson3　Learn about the benefits of using radiation: x-ray diagnosis
lesson4　Learn about nuclear medicine diagnosis, a benefit of using radiation
lesson5　Learn about radiation therapy, a benefit of using radiation
lesson6　Learn about nuclear power, an industrial application use of radiation
lesson7　To learn about the use and analysis of radiation in the agro-industrial field, which is the industrial application use of radiation
lesson8　Learn about cosmic radiation and radiation from the earth, which is natural radiation
lesson9　Learn about acute radiation injury and carcinogenesis, the effects of radiation on the human body
lesson10　Learning about the negative aspects of radiation from past radiation exposure accidents
lesson11　Learn about radiation exposure from radioactive materials outside the body and appropriate protection against it
lesson12　Learn how to measure radiation of radioactive materials in the body
lesson13　Learn about radiation exposure due to radioactive materials in the body and how to properly protect against it
lesson14　Learn how to decontaminate radioactive materials adhering to body surfaces
lesson15　Learn the principles of radiation measuring instruments and their use
