It is based on a research in progress. The term radiation protection is applied to the concept of protection of people, worker or public, against the harmful effect of ionizing radiation. It is an important area and has to be in constant improvement to gain the society’s trust. A way to make it possible is through studies of past accidents therefore, accidents reports are important. It is useful for creating a database with enough information to assist in accident management and prevention. This database also helps radiation practices to be more accepted by the community. From a public individual point of view, a practice with reliable statistics that shows low accident rates is more acceptable, even though some hazard might be present. The intent is gammagraphy’s risks to be managed and reduced in the future, so the use of the technology might grow while public’s acceptance increases and the magnitude of the perceived danger of the practice diminishes as seen through people’s eyes.3199-3205openAccessgamma radiographyindustrial accidentsinformation needsionizing radiationsoccupational exposurequality assuranceradiation protectionTexto completo de eventohttps://orcid.org/0000-0001-8999-8548
