Ionizing radiation: the good, the bad, and the ugly.

The skin changes due to ionizing radiation have been scientifically recorded since 1902. Ionizing radiation is a widely accepted treatment for a variety of cancers. Despite technological progress, radiation skin damage is still an important issue. This type of injury, commonly referred to as radiation dermatitis, occurs in about 95% of patients undergoing cancer radiotherapy ranging from mild erythema to wet scaling and ulceration. Ionizing radiation is not only a concern for cancer patients but also a public health problem due to the possibility of nuclear and / or radiological events and reality. Recently, the United States is strengthening its efforts to develop medical measures to prevent radiation toxicity from being affected by bioterrorism and cancer treatment. Management of radiation dermatitis may increase the therapeutic benefit of radiotherapy for cancer and increase the expected mortality rate in any "dirty bomb" attack. Currently, there is no effective treatment for preventing or reducing skin damage caused by radiation. This review is a summary of "good, bad, and ugly" of current and evolving knowledge about the mechanism and treatment of radiation induced skin damage.

Three aspects of low-dose ionizing radiation have been proposed: good, bad, and ugly. Fortunately, France, Japan, China have received thousands of studies indicating that low-dose radiation can cause irritation and benefits without harm. This includes thousands of people who are exposed to healthy and high background radiation. The bad thing is that the United States and most other governments do not accept radiation hormones; their linear threshold-less threshold (LNT) concept reveals fear of all radiation and provides legal not based on mammalian physiology I will produce it. The concept of LNT leads to poor health, unreasonable medical care, and industrial oppression. Ugly is the deception of the Medical Radiology Commission for decades and these committees refuse to consider valid evidence for cancer, other diseases and healthy radiation hormones. We provide examples of good, bad, and ugly radiation hormones
