This timely program examines three potential scenarios involving terrorist use of radiological weapons: attack by a nuclear bomb, attack on a nuclear power plant, and dispersal of a radiological device, also known as a dirty bomb. The program discusses the short- and long-term health effects of radiation exposure and covers the response and protective actions required of emergency responders. Topics covered include exposure limits for emergency response and survival; use of radiation alert devices; size-up issues; protective clothing; search and rescue; triage; decontamination; and much more.
