Code of Practice for Radiation Protection in the Application of Ionizing Radiation by Chiropractors (2009)
This Code of Practice is a regulatory document and covers radiation protection in the application of ionizing radiation by chiropractors. It establishes the regulatory requirements for the application of ionizing radiation in chiropractic procedures for inclusion in the National Directory for Radiation Protection and adoption by Australian jurisdictions.
In January 2015, Annex 2 - Health Effects of Ionizing Radiation and Standards for Control of Exposure, was removed from the electronic edition of RPS 19. For information on the health effects of ionising radiation, refer to RPS F-1 Fundamentals for Protection Against Ionising Radiation (2014).
Publications from the Radiation Protection Series are now available in digital format only. If you require access to a format other than PDF, please contact us.
