title: Designing for a safe workplace.
abstract: X-radiation is an intense form of energy which occurs naturally as a background force and which is also produced artificially. Used in medicine, it offers valuable assistance in diagnosis and therapy--but there is a risk which must not be forgotten. Unfortunately there is no simple formula to calculate if radiation is dangerous or safe, says Wardray Premise Limited. In some instances a single dose will induce the growth of cancerous cells. In other instances dosage 100 times greater will have no apparent effect.
