What Are Common Sources of Non-Ionizing Radiation in Neonatal Care?
In neonatal care settings, several sources of non-ionizing radiation are commonly encountered:
Phototherapy units used for treating jaundice in neonates emit blue light (visible spectrum). Incubators and radiant warmers that use IR radiation to maintain body temperature. Diagnostic tools like ultrasound machines that employ sound waves (another form of non-ionizing radiation).
