Radiation definition

Radiation means alpha particles, beta particles, gamma rays, X-rays, neutrons, high-speed electrons, high-speed protons, and other particles capable of producing ions. For purposes of these rules, ionizing radiation is an equivalent term. Radiation, as used in these rules, does not include nonionizing radiation, such as radiowaves or microwaves, visible, infrared, or ultraviolet light.

Radiation means alpha particles, beta particles, gamma rays, x rays, neutrons, high-speed electrons, high- speed protons, and other particles capable of producing ions. For purposes of these regulations, ionizing radiation is an equivalent term. Radiation, as used in these regulations, does not include non-ionizing radiation, such as radiowaves or microwaves, visible, infrared, or ultraviolet light.

Radiation or "ionizing radiation" means alpha particles, beta particles, gamma rays, x-rays, neutrons, high speed electrons, high speed protons, and other particles capable of producing ions. Radiation does not include nonionizing radiation, such as radio or microwaves, or visible, infrared or ultraviolet light.

Examples of Radiation in a sentence

• Radiation safety training must be part of the CME and not be less than one hour of the 15 hours required (A facility-based radiation safety program, which provides a minimum of one hour of training every three years will satisfy the radiation safety CME requirement.).

• Performance of Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse imaging for the staging of liver fibrosis: a pooled meta-analysis.

• Nichols, Assistant Administrator for Air and Radiation, to the EPA Regional Offices, May 30, 1996.

• If the research requires human or animal participants the Grantee must submit application(s) for all institutional authorizations included, but not limited to the IACUC and IRB and Radiation Safety Review.

• Pediatric Computed Tomography (CT) Radiation Dose Hospitals are scored on their performance for head scans and abdomen/pelvis scans separately, by comparing the median radiation dose length product (DLP) for each anatomic region and age stratum by phantom dose to two benchmarks.

More Definitions of Radiation

Radiation means any or all of the following: Alpha, beta, gamma, or X- rays; neutrons; and high-energy electrons, protons, or other atomic particles; but not sound or radio waves, nor visible, infrared, or ultraviolet light.

Radiation means ionizing radiation; i.e., gamma rays and x-rays, alpha and beta particles, high speed electrons, neutrons, high speed protons, and other nuclear particles.

Radiation or "ionizing radiation" means gamma rays and x-rays, alpha and beta particles, high-speed electrons, neutrons, protons, and other nuclear particles, or electromagnetic radiations capable of producing ions directly or indirectly in their passage through matter; but does not include sound or radio waves, or visible infrared or ultraviolet light. [420 ILCS 40/4(f)]

Radiation means alpha particles, beta particles, gamma rays, x rays, neutrons, high−speed electrons, high−speed protons and other particles capable of producing ions. “Radi- ation” does not include non−ionizing radiation, such as radio- waves or microwaves, visible, infrared or ultraviolet light.

Radiation means ionizing radiation.

Radiation means ionizing and nonionizing radiation, including gamma rays,

Radiation means alpha particles, beta particles, gamma rays, x-rays, neutrons, high-speed electrons, high-speed protons, and other particles capable of producing ions. For purposes of these rules, this term is synonymous with ionizing radiation. Equivalent terminology for non-ionizing radiation is defined in Article 14.
