This lecture covers the fundamentals of radiation protection, focusing on exposure time, distance, and half-value layers. It explains the absorbed dose dependency on radiation intensity and the three basic elements of radioprotection: time, distance, and shielding. Typical radiation exposures from natural and artificial sources are also discussed.
