Title: Describe mathematical units of radiation and radioactivity.
Course: Radiologic Technology II (14105-II) > Section: Exploring Radiologic Physics

Description should cite base and derived units of scientific systems of radiation measurement to include

- mass, length, and time
- exposure, dose, effective dose, and radioactivity.

The description should also distinguish between standard units and the International System of Units (SI).

*SI=Systeme Internationale

Process/Skill Questions:

- Why is measurement of radiation exposure important?
- What is radioactivity?
- What are the basic units of measurement?
- How do units relate to the decimal system?
