Abstract

The suggested assessment of rehabilitation measure efficiency is distinguished by the fact that integral risk interpretation is considered, which takes total radiation exposure and reduction of life standards caused by it into account. A rehabilitation measure structure in the context of radiation emergency is given. Classification of direct and mediated consequences of an emergency is given. Optimization of rehabilitation measures is carried out from the position of quality and security of life balancing. Corresponding expenses are compared to the cost of radiation exposure and its social equivalent damage. The role of an efficiency criterion is given to an integral damage minimum.

Highlights

  • Negative consequences of anthropogenic influence on the environment on a global scale acquired a status of an extreme ecological problem

  • The term «radiation security» is defined as a state when present and future generations are protected from an ionizing radiation effect detrimental to health

  • According to the International commission on radiation security (ICRP) summary, in case if radiation protection of a human is provided, other species are considered to be protected on a population level as well

Summary

Introduction

Negative consequences of anthropogenic influence on the environment on a global scale acquired a status of an extreme ecological problem. Radiation security of the population exposed to accidental anthropogenic irradiation proceeds from territory zoning on the basis of risk intensity regarding residence [10, 11]. In our country maximum intensity risk from ionizing radiation exposure is approved at a level 5∙10-5 year-1 that is equivalent to the efficient dose of 1 microsievert per year (μSv/year) or 7 centisievert for life [6].
