Explain acute radiation dose. 

exposure is when an individual receives a high radiation dose over a relatively short period of time.  Acute radiation exposure also called Acute Radiation Syndrome (ARS).  ARS results when an individual receives a whole body exposure of 100 to 200 Rems or more (Roentgen Equivalent Man) over a 24-hour period of time.  The table below shows the likely symptoms associated with differing levels of exposure.
