Abstract

Background and Aim: X - ray and gamma ray are part of the electromagnetic waves that can penetrate into living tissues, ionizing radiation can Lead to abnormal function. Despite radiology students could be exposed to ionization radiation during received training, their radiation dose has not evaluated. The purpose of this study was to compare the blood factors and thyroid hormones in the senior and freshman radiology students Materials and Methods: case -control study was performed in may-July 2018. the sample size was consisted of 60 freshman and senior radiology students (30 freshman and 30 senior radiology students) who were healthy and have not has blood diseases. Eventually, The blood factors of students was analyzed in the laboratory. Results: measuring blood factors such as white blood cell, erythrocyte, basophil, neutrophil, platelet, hemoglobin but the mean basophil, lymphocyte, T4 and TSH showed that Ionizing radiation causes significant changes in basophil, lymphocytes and thyroid hormones (T4 and TSH) in two group of students, but there was no significant difference in others blood factors between two group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Ionizing radiation caused changes some blood factors (basophil, lymphocytes and thyroid hormones (T4 and TSH) ). therefore, the survey of radiology division and raising safety and awareness of student is recommended. © 2018 the Author (s).
