방사선비상계획은 원자력시설에 대한 사고해석을 통해 산출한 방사선원항과 기상자료에 근거한 선량평가 결과를 기초로 비상계획이 필요한 거리를 산출하고, 비상계획이 필요한 거리 내에 거주하고 있는 거주민에 대한 옥내대피, 소개, 갑상선방호 등의 보호조치 계획을 수립하는 방식으로 이루어진다. 본 연구에서는 연구용원자로 '하나로'에서 가상할 수 있는 최대사고 조건 하에서 부지내외 거주자에 대한 보호조치 전 후의 선량변화를 1년간 기상자료에 기초하여 확률론적으로 평가하고, 국제방사선방호위원회의 2007년 권고에서 제시한, 비상피폭상황에서 보호조치 이후 잔여선량으로 정의된 참조준위 개념을 사용하여, 최적의 보호조치 유형을 도출하였다. 하나로의 경우 최대 가상사고시 최적의 보호조치 유형은 반경 300 m 이내 거주자 소개, 반경 800 m 이내 거주자 옥내대피로 평가되었으며, 갑상선방호는 반경 600 m 이내 거주자에 국한하여 해당되는데 이 지역 거주자가 소개 또는 옥내대피시는 방사능방재요원 외에 필요가 없는 것으로 평가되었다.

Dental professions are considered high risk for contracting hepatitis infection. In Korea, many patients are hepatitis B virus carriers. HBV are most efficiently transmitted by blood. Root canal treatment, as in cases of acute pulpitis always accompanied by contaminated blood. Therefore it is absolutely necessary to use irrigation solutions having strong antiviral effect for prophylaxis both dental personnel and patients. The purpose of this study was to investigate the antiviral effect of seven root canal irrigation solutions by radioimmunometric test. The solutions were 5% sodium phyochlorite, 5% cresol, 2% glutaraldehyde, 3% hydrogen peroxide, 0.05% chlorohexidine, 10% iodine, and 70% isoprophyl alcohol. Each irrigation solutions was mixed with serum preparated from HBsAg positive patients and sera were diluted to 1:1. 1:4. 1:20 and 1:100. Percentage of radioactivity was assayed with AUK(Sorbin biomedica, Italy) and COBRA(Packwood Instrument company, USA). Sodium hypochlorite and glutaraldehyde showed most strong antivral activity against HBsAg. Isoprophyl alcohol had moderate antiviral effect and the effect and the effect was increased especially in 1:4 solution. Hydrogen peroxide exihibited very weak aintivral activity. Cresol, chlorohexidine, and iodine exhibited little antiviral activity.

In mass casualty situation due to radiological accidents, it is important to start aggressive management with rapid triage decisions. External contamination needs immediate decontamination and internal contamination should be treated with special expertise and equipment to prevent the rapid uptake of radionuclides by target organs. Acute radiation syndrome shows a sequence of events that varies with the severity of the exposure. More severe exposures generally lead to more rapid onset of symptoms and severe clinical findings. After the massive exposure, various systems of the body reflect their severe damages that can lead to death within hours or up to several months. The disease progression has classically been divided into four stages: prodromal, latent, manifest illness, and recovery or death. Three characteristic clusters of symptoms including the hematopoietic syndrome, the gastrointestinal syndrome and the cerebrovascular syndrome are all associated with the acute radiation syndrome. The standard medical management of the patients with a potentially survivable radiation exposure includes good medical, surgical and supportive measures. Specific treatment with cytokines and bone marrow transplantation should be considered. The management of internal contamination is much the same as the treatment of poisoning. The standard decontamination should be applied to reduce uptake, and the chelating agents can be administered to enhance the clearance of radioisotopes. Radioactive iodine ($^{131}I$) as one of the nuclear fission products can increase the incidence of thyroid cancer in children. Potential benefit of potassium iodide prophylaxis is greater especially in neonates, infants and small children.
