= Radiation health effects
{wiki=Category:Radiation_health_effects}
Radiation health effects refer to the biological consequences that result from exposure to ionizing radiation. Ionizing radiation has enough energy to remove tightly bound electrons from atoms, which can lead to cellular damage, mutations, and, in severe cases, death. The effects of radiation exposure can vary based on factors such as the type and amount of radiation, duration of exposure, the route of exposure, and the individual's sensitivity.
