(en) Ionizing radiation existed on Earth long before humans appeared on it. However, the effect of ionizing radiation on the human body was discovered only at the end of the XIX century with the discovery and study of the phenomenon of radioactivity by French physicists A. Becquerel, P. Curie and M. Sklodowska Curie. The effect of radiation on the body directly depends on the intensity of radiation and the duration of stay in its field of action. The effect of radioactive radiation in large doses on the human body leads to serious consequences. During irradiation, the body receives doses of radiation that enter the cells of the body and begin to destroy them. Diseases caused by radiation can range from common metabolic disorders to severe chronic diseases.
