Abstract: This paper aims to describe information about ionizing radiation and the problems that exposure to it can cause to the human body. To compose this literature review, articles related to the topic were researched in electronic databases such as PUBMED, Scielo, LILACS, institutional library repositories, books and electronic scientific journals. Radiation is a source of energy widely used in scientific and technological research in several areas, such as medicine and nuclear energy, which can affect human health in several ways. Several studies already published show the impacts that excessive exposure can cause to humans. However, the population is exposed to the most varied types of radiation on a daily basis, without the necessary awareness about the risks. It is concluded that understanding the problems that radiation can cause is essential to protect human health and the safety of individuals who work in environments where they are exposed to radiation, as well as to promote safe scientific research and raise public awareness about the importance of radiological safety.
