Question: Can radiation seeds implanted into a patient effect people around the patient!?
i just asked a question about radiation seeds earlier and had a good answer but i forgot to add this, if a patient gets a radiation seed implanted in them, could the seed emit enough radiation to harm people that come close to that person or is it contained within their body!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Yes, the patient becomes radioactive because the instable isotopes have become part of his cells!. SInce our skin is not made of lead, this radioactivity can cross it and reach people around us!. Smaller children are more at risk because they take less radiation to get sick!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
