description The goal of radiation protection is to protect humans and the environment from the effects of ionising radiation. The three main principles are justification, limitation and optimisation. Optimisation is about maintaining doses as low as reasonably achievable, which is known as the ALARA principle. Different protection measures can be taken to reduce exposure to radiation.
