The primary aim of radiological protection is to provide an appropriate standard of protection for people and the environment without unduly limiting the beneficial practices giving rise to radiation exposure. ICRP [http://www.icrp.org/publication.asp?id=ICRP%20Publication%20103 '''''Publication 103'''''] has formulated a set of fundamental principles of radiological protection that apply to radiation sources and to the individuals being exposed. These principles are applicable to radiological protection in medicine. ICRP has provided recommendations for protection in medicine through [http://www.icrp.org/publication.asp?id=ICRP%20Publication%20105 '''''Publication 105'''''], [http://www.icrp.org/publication.asp?id=ICRP%20Supporting%20Guidance%202 ''''''Supporting Guidance 2'''''] and [http://www.icrp.org/publication.asp?id=ICRP%20Publication%2073 '''''Publication 73'''''].
