Radiation Health Protection Manual

By Bureau of Medicine And Surgery and Bureau of Medicine and Surgery

This manual provides the radiation health requirements applicable to Navy and Marine Corps radiation protection programs. A radiation protection program may be defined as the sum of all methods, plans, and procedures used to protect the health and environment of personnel from exposure to sources of ionizing radiation. It includes the radiation health program and radiological controls program. A radiation health protection program is not an end in itself; its purpose is to provide the means to preserve and maintain the health of personnel while they accomplish necessary and purposeful work in or around areas contaminated with radioactive material or areas where they are exposed to ionizing radiation.
