Which tissues are affected most by radiation?
  1. Smooth muscle
  2. Slow division
  3. Rapid division
  4. Adhesive
Explanation
Answer: C - Tissues that divide rapidly are more affected by radiation than those that slowly divide. This is why it is essential to protect pregnant women and children under the age of 18 from unnecessary exposure to radiation. Proper technique and patient restraint prevents unnecessary retakes and re-exposure to tissue-damaging radiation.
