Issuing technologies of ionizing radiation and the need of permanent education for a safe praxis in radiological nursing

Abstract

Reflecting about radiological technologies and the need for permanent education to address issues related to the application of ionizing radiation on radiological nursing practice is of a great importance, due to the technological progress that revolutionized practices in health and, consequently, the nursing care. So, these technologies strongly focus on labor and worker's qualification. This reflection happens in the acting areas of radiological nursing in the Radiology Services and Image Diagnosis (SRDI), as well as the need for permanent education to the safe praxis on this specialty which is presented through some authors' studies. Primarily, in relation to the radiological protection and need to qualify these workers.
