Ionizing radiation is commonly used in diagnostic and therapeutic applications in medicine. Therefore, both staff and patients are exposed to the biological influence of radiation. Biological effects and damages are proportional to the irradiation.In this study the radiation dose to human in the patient room and the technician room at computed tomography and X-ray units were measured and compared for different situations.
