How much radiation can your body take?
The amount of radiation the body can withstand depends on various factors, including the type of radiation, duration of exposure, and individual's size and health. The unit used to measure radiation dose is the sievert (Sv), and exposure to high doses of radiation can lead to acute radiation sickness or even death. The recommended limit for occupational radiation exposure is typically around 50 millisieverts (mSv) per year.
