Question

a periodic blood count is not recommended as a method for monitoring occupational radiation exposure because: biologic damage from ionizing radiation cannot be determined from a blood test biologic damage has already been sustained when an irregularity is seen in the blood count a traditional blood count is a relatively insensitive test that is unable to indicate exposures of less than 10cgy (10 rads) group of answer choices 1 only 2 only 3 only 2 and 3 only

Answer 1

2 and 3 only

Step-by-step explanation:

A periodic blood count is not recommended as a method for monitoring occupational radiation exposure because:

1. biologic damage from ionizing radiation cannot be determined from a blood test.

2. biologic damage has already been sustained when an irregularity is seen in the blood count.

3. a traditional blood count is a relatively insensitive test that is unable to indicate exposures of less than 10 cGy.
