Abstract: Radiography and imaging technology play a critical role in modern healthcare, providing vital diagnostic information to support patient care. However, the use of ionizing radiation in these technologies raises concerns about radiation safety and the associated risks of exposure. Ionizing radiation can damage living tissue and increase the risk of cancer and other adverse health effects (IAEA, 2014). Thus, it is essential to ensure that radiation doses are kept as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA) and that proper radiation safety protocols are followed to minimize radiation exposure to both patients and healthcare workers. The International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) has established principles for radiological protection in medicine, emphasizing the need to balance the benefits of radiation exposure with the potential risks (ICRP, 2018). The ICRP has recommended that healthcare professionals take steps to reduce radiation exposure by using appropriate shielding, selecting appropriate imaging modalities, and implementing imaging protocols that minimize radiation doses. These guidelines are critical in ensuring patient and staff safety while maintaining the quality of diagnostic information obtained through radiography and imaging technology. However, studies have shown that there is still a need for improved radiation safety awareness and practices among radiology technologists and other healthcare professionals (Almalki et al., 2021). In addition, new technologies, such as interventional radiology, present unique radiation safety challenges that require specialized training and protocols (Chou et al., 2020). Therefore, ongoing research and education on radiation safety are critical to ensure that healthcare professionals can safely and effectively use radiography and imaging technology to support patient care. This research proposal aims to investigate radiation safety in radiography and imaging technology, focusing on identifying areas of risk and developing strategies to improve radiation safety protocols. This study will include a comprehensive literature review of current radiation safety guidelines, as well as an analysis of current radiation safety practices in healthcare facilities. Additionally, this study will investigate the effectiveness of current radiation safety training programs and identify areas for improvement. Ultimately, this research aims to contribute to the development of evidence-based guidelines for radiation safety in radiography and imaging technology, which can be disseminated to healthcare facilities and professionals.
