The International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) developed effective dose as a quantity related to risk for occupational and public exposure. There was a need for a similar dose quantity linked to risk for making everyday decisions relating to medical procedures. Coefficients were developed to enable the calculation of doses to organs and tissues, and effective doses for procedures in nuclear medicine and radiology during the 1980s and 1990s. Effective dose has provided a valuable tool that is now used in the establishment of guidelines for patient referral and justification of procedures, choice of appropriate imaging techniques, and providing dose data on potential exposure of volunteers for research studies, all of which require the benefits from the procedure to be weighed against the risks. However, the approximations made in the derivation of effective dose are often forgotten, and the uncertainties in calculations of risks are discussed. An ICRP report on protection dose quantities has been prepared that provides more information on the application of effective dose, and concludes that effective dose can be used as an approximate measure of possible risk. A discussion of the way in which it should be used is given here, with applications for which it is considered suitable. Approaches to the evaluation of risk and methods for conveying information on risk are also discussed.

国际放射防护委员会(ICRP)制定了有效剂量,作为与职业和公众照射风险有关的数量。在作出与医疗程序有关的日常决定时,需要有与风险相关的类似剂量。在1980年代和1990年代,制定了系数,以便能够计算对器官和组织的剂量以及核医学和放射学程序的有效剂量。有效剂量提供了一种有价值的工具,现在用于建立病人转诊和程序论证指南,选择适当的成像技术,以及提供研究志愿者潜在暴露的剂量数据,所有这些都需要权衡程序的益处与风险。然而,在有效剂量的推导中所作的近似值往往被遗忘,并讨论了风险计算中的不确定性。已经编写了一份ICRP关于保护剂量数量的报告,提供了关于有效剂量应用的更多信息,并得出结论认为,有效剂量可用作可能风险的近似度量。这里讨论了它的使用方式,以及它被认为适合的应用程序。还讨论了评估风险的方法和传递风险信息的方法。

[Formula: see text]There is a growing desire amongst space-faring nations to venture beyond the Van Allen radiation belts to a variety of intriguing locations in our inner solar system. Mars is the ultimate destination. In two decades, we hope to vicariously share in the adventure of an intrepid crew of international astronauts on the first voyage to the red planet.This will be a daunting mission with an operational profile unlike anything astronauts have flown before. A flight to Mars will be a 50-million-kilometre journey. Interplanetary distances are so great that voice and data communications between mission control on Earth and a base on Mars will feature latencies up to 20 min. Consequently, the ground support team will not have real-time control of the systems aboard the transit spacecraft nor the surface habitat. As cargo resupply from Earth will be impossible, the onboard inventory of equipment and supplies must be planned strategically in advance. Furthermore, the size, amount, and function of onboard equipment will be constrained by limited volume, mass, and power allowances.With less oversight from the ground, all vehicle systems will need to be reliable and robust. They must function autonomously. Astronauts will rely on their own abilities and onboard resources to deal with urgent situations that will inevitably arise.The deep space environment is hazardous. Zero- and reduced-gravity effects will trigger deconditioning of the cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, and other physiological systems. While living for 2.5 years in extreme isolation, Mars crews will experience psychological stressors such as loss of privacy, reduced comforts of living, and distant relationships with family members and friends.Beyond Earth's protective magnetosphere, the fluence of ionising radiation will be higher. Longer exposure of astronauts to galactic cosmic radiation could result in the formation of cataracts, impaired wound healing, and degenerative tissue diseases. Genetic mutations and the onset of cancer later in life are also possible. Acute radiation sickness and even death could ensue from a large and unpredictable solar particle event.There are many technological barriers that prevent us from carrying out a mission to Mars today. Before launching the first crew, we will need to develop processes for in-situ resource utilisation. Rather than bringing along large quantities of oxygen, water, and propellant from Earth, future astronauts will need to produce some of these consumables from local space-based resources.Ion propulsion systems will be needed to reduce travel times to interplanetary destinations, and we will need systems to land larger payloads (up to 40 tonnes of equipment and supplies for a human mission) on planetary surfaces. These and other innovations will be needed before humans venture into deep space.However, it is the delivery of health care that is regarded as one of the most important obstacles to be overcome. Physicians,

越来越多的太空探索国家希望超越范艾伦辐射带,探索太阳系内部各种有趣的地方。火星是最终的目的地。二十年后,我们希望能亲身体验勇敢的国际宇航员首次前往这颗红色星球的冒险经历。这将是一项艰巨的任务,其操作概况与宇航员以前飞行的任何任务都不同。飞往火星将是一个5000万公里的旅程。行星际距离是如此之远,以至于地球上的任务控制中心和火星上的基地之间的语音和数据通信将延迟长达20分钟。因此,地面支援小组将无法实时控制过境航天器上的系统,也无法控制地面栖息地。由于来自地球的货物补给将是不可能的,机载设备和物资的库存必须提前进行战略规划。此外,机载设备的尺寸、数量和功能将受到有限的体积、质量和功率的限制。由于来自地面的监督减少,所有的车辆系统都需要可靠和强大。它们必须自主运作。宇航员将依靠自己的能力和船上的资源来处理不可避免会出现的紧急情况。深空环境是危险的。零重力和失重效应将触发心血管、肌肉骨骼和其他生理系统的失调。在极端隔离的条件下生活2.5年,火星宇航员将经历心理压力,如失去隐私、生活舒适度降低、与家人和朋友的关系疏远。在地球的保护磁层之外,电离辐射的影响将会更大。宇航员长期暴露在银河宇宙辐射下可能导致白内障的形成、伤口愈合受损和退行性组织疾病。基因突变和晚年癌症的发病也是可能的。严重的放射病甚至死亡都可能是由巨大的、不可预测的太阳粒子事件引起的。目前有许多技术障碍阻碍我们执行火星任务。在发射第一批宇航员之前,我们需要制定就地资源利用的流程。未来的宇航员不需要从地球上携带大量的氧气、水和推进剂,而是需要从当地的太空资源中生产一些消耗品。离子推进系统将需要减少到星际目的地的旅行时间,我们将需要系统在行星表面着陆更大的有效载荷(人类任务中高达40吨的设备和物资)。在人类冒险进入深空之前,需要这些和其他创新。然而,保健服务的提供被认为是需要克服的最重要障碍之一。医生、生物医学工程师、人为因素专家和辐射专家正在重新思考医疗保健、机组人员表现和生命支持的操作概念。传统上由地面医疗队对宇航员健康的监督将不再可能,特别是在紧急情况下。为了将生病或受伤的机组人员医疗撤离到地球而中止深空任务将不是一种选择。未来的宇航员必须具备监测和管理自身健康的所有能力和责任。机载医疗资源必须包括成像、手术和紧急护理,以及血液、尿液和其他生物标本的实验室分析。机组人员中至少应有一名受过广泛训练并具有远程医疗经验的医生。她/他将得到机载健康信息网络的支持,该网络支持人工智能,以协助监测、诊断和治疗。换句话说,深空的医疗保健将变得更加自主、智能和定点护理。国际放射防护委员会(ICRP)在阿德莱德举行的第五届国际研讨会上专门用一天的时间讨论火星探测的主题。ICRP今天将全球专家聚集在一起,审议辐射防护的紧迫问题。有许多问题需要解决:目前在近地轨道上使用的辐射对抗措施能否适用于深空?能否将低原子量的材料集成到深空飞行器的结构中以保护乘员?如果发生重大的太阳粒子事件,安全的避难所能足够保护船员免受高剂量的辐射吗?火星的风化层可以用作地下栖息地的屏蔽材料吗?仅仅屏蔽就足以使暴露最小化,还是还需要生物和药物对策?在这次研讨会之后,我将重视ICRP继续参与空间探索。 ICRP最近设立了115工作队,以审查辐射对宇航员健康的影响,并建议照射限度。这项工作至关重要。辐射的生物效应不仅会影响未来探险者的健康、福祉和表现,还会影响他们的生命长度和质量。虽然人类几十年来一直梦想着前往这颗红色星球,但真正的任务终于开始成为可能。多么令人兴奋啊!我感谢ICRP为保护地球上的辐射工作人员而正在进行的工作。未来,我们将依靠ICRP的建议来保护外星工作者,并使深空探索成为可能。

Accidents happen. Aircraft crash, ships sink, trains derail, chemical factories explode, dams break, and nuclear power plants fail. We also face natural disasters such as floods, droughts, hurricanes and typhoons, earthquakes, heat waves, volcanic eruptions, tornados, meteor strikes, forest fires, ice storms, mud slides, and tsunami. Each of these can shake a city, region, or nation. A few have shaken the world. The consequences can be political, societal, environmental, economic, and, most of all, human.

The field of artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming almost every aspect of modern society, including medical imaging. In computed tomography (CT), AI holds the promise of enabling further reductions in patient radiation dose through automation and optimisation of data acquisition processes, including patient positioning and acquisition parameter settings. Subsequent to data collection, optimisation of image reconstruction parameters, advanced reconstruction algorithms, and image denoising methods improve several aspects of image quality, especially in reducing image noise and enabling the use of lower radiation doses for data acquisition. Finally, AI-based methods to automatically segment organs or detect and characterise pathology have been translated out of the research environment and into clinical practice to bring automation, increased sensitivity, and new clinical applications to patient care, ultimately increasing the benefit to the patient from medically justified CT examinations. In summary, since the introduction of CT, a large number of technical advances have enabled increased clinical benefit and decreased patient risk, not only by reducing radiation dose, but also by reducing the likelihood of errors in the performance and interpretation of medically justified CT examinations.

人工智能(AI)领域正在改变现代社会的几乎每一个方面,包括医学成像。在计算机断层扫描(CT)中,人工智能有望通过自动化和优化数据采集过程,包括患者定位和采集参数设置,进一步降低患者的辐射剂量。在数据采集之后,图像重建参数的优化、先进的重建算法和图像去噪方法提高了图像质量的几个方面,特别是在降低图像噪声和使用较低的辐射剂量进行数据采集方面。最后,基于人工智能的自动分割器官或检测和表征病理的方法已经从研究环境中转移到临床实践中,为患者护理带来自动化、更高的灵敏度和新的临床应用,最终增加了患者从医学上合理的CT检查中获益。总之,自从引入CT以来,大量的技术进步不仅通过减少辐射剂量,而且通过减少在医学上合理的CT检查的表现和解释中出现错误的可能性,从而增加了临床效益并降低了患者风险。

The International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) recently issued ICRP Publication 142 on radiological protection from naturally occurring radioactive material (NORM) in industrial processes. Industries involving NORM may give rise to multiple hazards, and the radiological hazard is not necessarily dominant. They are diverse and may involve exposure of people and the environment where protective actions need to be considered. In some cases, there is a potential for significant routine exposure of workers and members of the public. Releases of large volumes of NORM may also result in detrimental effects on the environment from radiological and non-radiological constituents. However, industries involving NORM present no real prospect of a radiological emergency leading to tissue reactions or immediate danger for life. Radiological protection in these industries can be appropriately addressed on the basis of the principles of justification of the actions taken and optimisation of protection using reference levels. An integrated and graded approach is recommended for the protection of workers, the public, and the environment, where consideration of non-radiological hazards is integrated with the radiological hazards, and the approach to protection is optimised (graded) so that the use of various radiological protection programme elements is consistent with the hazards while not imposing unnecessary burdens.

国际放射防护委员会(ICRP)最近发布了关于工业过程中自然产生的放射性物质(NORM)的辐射防护的第142号出版物。涉及NORM的行业可能产生多重危害,辐射危害不一定占主导地位。它们是多种多样的,可能涉及需要考虑采取保护行动的人和环境的暴露。在某些情况下,工人和公众可能会有大量的日常接触。大量NORM的释放也可能通过放射性和非放射性成分对环境造成有害影响。然而,涉及NORM的行业并没有出现导致组织反应或直接危及生命的放射性紧急情况的真正前景。这些行业的辐射防护可以根据采取行动的理由和使用参考水平优化防护的原则适当处理。建议采用综合分级方法保护工人、公众和环境,将对非辐射危害的考虑与辐射危害结合起来,并对保护方法进行优化(分级),使各种辐射防护计划要素的使用与危害一致,同时不会造成不必要的负担。

Recent progress in space weather research for cosmic radiation dosimetry. 宇宙辐射剂量学空间天气研究进展。

The radiation environment in space is a complex mixture of particles of solar and galactic origin with a broad range of energies. In astronaut dose estimation, three sources must be considered: galactic cosmic radiation, trapped particles, and solar energetic particles (SEPs). The astronaut dose due to SEP exposure during a space mission is more difficult to estimate than the other components because the occurrence of a large solar particle event cannot be predicted by the current space weather research. Thus, several models have been proposed to estimate the worst-case scenario and/or the probability of the integral SEP fluence during a particular space mission, considering the confidence level, solar activity, and duration of the mission. In addition, recent investigations of the cosmogenic nuclide concentrations in tree rings and ice cores have revealed that the sun can cause solar particle events much larger than the largest event recorded in the modern solar observations. If such an extreme event occurs during a mission to deep space, astronauts may suffer from radiation doses in excess of the threshold value for some tissue reactions (0.5 Gy) and their career limit (0.6-1.2 Sv). This article reviews the recent progress made in space weather research that is useful for cosmic radiation dosimetry.

空间中的辐射环境是太阳和银河系起源的粒子的复杂混合物,具有广泛的能量范围。在宇航员剂量估计中,必须考虑三个来源:银河宇宙辐射、捕获粒子和太阳高能粒子(sep)。由于目前的空间气象研究还无法预测大型太阳粒子事件的发生,因此宇航员在太空任务中暴露的SEP剂量比其他成分更难估计。因此,考虑到置信度、太阳活动和任务持续时间,已经提出了几种模型来估计最坏情况和/或特定空间任务期间整体SEP影响的概率。此外,最近对树木年轮和冰芯中宇宙核素浓度的研究表明,太阳可以引起比现代太阳观测记录的最大事件大得多的太阳粒子事件。如果在深空任务期间发生这种极端事件,宇航员所受的辐射剂量可能会超过某些组织反应的阈值(0.5戈瑞)和他们的职业极限(0.6-1.2希沃特)。本文综述了空间天气研究的最新进展,对宇宙辐射剂量学的研究有一定的参考价值。

As we work towards a holistic approach to radiation protection, we begin to consider and integrate protection beyond humans to include, among other things, non-human biota. Non-human biota not only includes environmental flora and fauna, but also livestock, companion animals, working animals, etc. Although under consideration, there is currently little guidance in terms of protection strategies for types of non-human biota beyond wildlife. For example, in recent years, veterinary procedures that make use of ionising radiation have increased in number and have diversified considerably, which has made radiation protection in veterinary applications of ionising radiation more challenging, both for humans and the animal patients. In fact, the common belief that doses to professionals and members of the public from these applications will be very low to negligible, and doses to the animals will not be acutely harmful nor even affect their lifetime probability of developing cancer, needs to be revisited in the light of higher dose diagnostic and interventional techniques, and certainly in the case of therapeutic applications. This paper provides a brief overview of the initiatives of the International Commission on Radiological Protection concerning radiation protection aspects of veterinary practice, and poses a variety of perspectives for consideration and further discussion.

当我们朝着辐射防护的整体方法努力时,我们开始考虑并整合除人类之外的防护措施,除其他外,还包括非人类生物群。非人类生物群不仅包括环境动植物,还包括家畜、伴侣动物、劳动动物等。尽管正在考虑中,但目前在野生动物以外的非人类生物群的保护策略方面几乎没有指导。例如,近年来,利用电离辐射的兽医程序数量增加,而且相当多样化,这使得电离辐射在兽医应用中的辐射防护对人类和动物患者都更具挑战性。事实上,人们普遍认为,这些应用对专业人员和公众的剂量非常低,甚至可以忽略不计,对动物的剂量不会严重有害,甚至不会影响它们一生中患癌症的可能性,这需要根据更高剂量的诊断和介入技术,以及治疗应用的情况来重新审视。本文简要概述了国际放射防护委员会关于兽医实践中辐射防护方面的倡议,并提出了各种可供考虑和进一步讨论的观点。

Medical exposures form the largest manmade contributor to total ionising radiation exposure of the UK population. In recent years, new technologies have been developed to improve treatment and prognosis of individuals treated with radiation for diseases such as cancer. However, there is evidence of public, patient, and medical professional concern that radiation protection regulations and practices, as well as understanding of potential long-term adverse health effects of radiation exposure (in the context of other health risks), have not always 'kept pace' with technological developments in this field. This is a truly complex, multi-disciplinary problem for the modern world.The 'Radiation Theme' of the Public Health England and Newcastle University Health Protection Research Unit on 'Chemical and Radiation Threats and Hazards' is addressing this need, with a key focus on a genuinely interdisciplinary approach bringing together world-leading epidemiologists, radiation biologists, clinicians, statisticians, and artists. In addition, the project has a strong grounding in public, patient, and medical professional involvement in research. Similarly, the EU-CONCERT-funded LDLensRad project seeks to understand the mechanisms of action of low-dose ionising radiation in the lens of the eye, and the potential contribution to the development of cataract - in contemporary research, such projects will only be considered successful when they make use of expertise from a variety of fields and when they are able to demonstrate that the outputs are not only of benefit to society, but that society understands and welcomes the benefits. Finally, successful engagement, training, and retention of early career scientists within this field is crucial for sustainability of the research. Herein, the contribution of embedded interdisciplinary working, stakeholder involvement, and training of early career scientists to recent advancements in the field of medical (and wider) radiation protection research is discussed and considered.

医疗照射是英国人口电离辐射照射总量的最大人为因素。近年来,新技术的发展,以改善治疗和预后的个人接受放射治疗的疾病,如癌症。然而,有证据表明,公众、患者和医疗专业人员关注辐射防护法规和做法,以及对辐射照射(在其他健康风险的背景下)潜在的长期不利健康影响的理解,并不总是与这一领域的技术发展“同步”。对于现代世界来说,这是一个真正复杂的、多学科的问题。英国公共卫生部和纽卡斯尔大学健康保护研究单位关于“化学和辐射威胁和危害”的“辐射主题”正在解决这一需求,重点是真正的跨学科方法,汇集了世界领先的流行病学家、辐射生物学家、临床医生、统计学家和艺术家。此外,该项目在公众、患者和医疗专业人员参与研究方面有着坚实的基础。同样,欧盟协奏曲资助的LDLensRad项目旨在了解低剂量电离辐射在眼球晶体中的作用机制,以及对白内障发展的潜在贡献——在当代研究中,只有当它们利用了各个领域的专业知识,并且能够证明其成果不仅对社会有益,而且社会理解并欢迎这些好处时,这样的项目才会被认为是成功的。最后,成功地参与、培训和留住该领域的早期职业科学家对研究的可持续性至关重要。本文讨论和考虑了嵌入式跨学科工作、利益相关者参与和早期职业科学家培训对医学(和更广泛)辐射防护研究领域最新进展的贡献。
