Introduction to Radiation
Types and Sources of Radiation . Radiation is energy in the form of waves of particles. There are two forms of radiation – non-ionizing and ionizing – which will be discussed in sections 3.1 and 3.2, respectively. 3.1 Non-ionizing radiation . Non-ionizing radiation has less energy than ionizing radiation; it does not possess enough energy ...

Thus, all biological damage effects begin with the c onsequence of radiation interactions with the atoms forming the cells. As a result, radiation effects on humans proceed from the lowest to the highest levels as noted in the above list.
