2014:03 Report from SSM’s scientific council on ionizing radiation within oncology, 2012
In this report, a finalized version of a radiotherapy protocol template for external beam radiotherapy is presented. The focus is on procedural aspects, while issues regarding clinical evaluation during and after treatment are not dealt with. The use of this radiotherapy template is encouraged for structured description of contemporary radiotherapy in care programs and clinical trial...

2013:31 Aesthetic ultrasound devices – current state of knowledge and suggested measurement set-up for characterization of exposure
This report concerns the ultrasound devices used for the aesthetic purposes of body contouring and fat reduction (ablation of adipose tissue). Such devices have recently become more frequent on the Swedish market. These ultrasound devices are currently not medically regulated in Sweden and little is known about their safety and potentially harmful exposure when using them. This report aims to...

2013:30 Laser pointers and Eye injuries - An analysis of reported cases
The safety limits that exist for human exposure of laser radiation are essential to reduce the risk of injuries. These values, however, give very little information on what tissue damages that may be expected at various elevated exposure levels. Similarly, the Swedish Radiation Protection Authority (SSM) has very little information on how such tissue damage is related to the impairment of the...

2012:20 Report from SSM’s scientific council on ionizing radiation within oncology, 2011
Many cancer patients are treated in accordance with written guidelines or clinical trial protocols. The scientific council states that the radiotherapy part in those guidelines and protocols is less well specified than other therapies such as surgery and chemotherapy. This report identifies the key aspects of modern radiotherapy from international radiotherapy organisations and scientific...
