The effects of ionizing radiation on the fetus and the risk factors for developing neoplasms in childhood

Introduction - Purpose: There are cases where a prospective mother needs to undergo a medical examination or treatment with ionizing radiation. The biological effects (immediate and distant) in the fetus due to its irradiation depend mainly on the "radiation dose" it will receive and the phase of its development at the time of irradiation. The aim of this work is to make a systematic review of the effect of the radiation on the pregnant woman and the possible effects on the fetus.
Material-Method: The material of the work was elicited from the International, Greek bibliography and articles, but also from the Internet using officially recognized sources.
Conclusions: Ionizing radiation finds significant diagnostic and therapeutic applications in medicine. Timely and valid diagnosis of illness through imaging techniques and sophisticated treatments contribute to extending life expectancy and improving the quality of life of the human being. The purpose of radiation protection in diagnostic tests is to ensure that the lowest dose is given to the pregnant woman with the best diagnostic result, while in the therapeutic practices (nuclear medicine, radiotherapy) the correct dose is given to the target, while protecting the healthy tissues.
