Because Ionizing radiation, such as X-rays, alpha rays, beta rays, and gamma rays, remains undetectable by the senses,  and the damage it causes to the body is cumulative, related to the total dose received. So we need to use a dosimeter to tell us how much radiation was absorbed so we can understand what impact that may have on our body and whether we need to seek medical treatment. It helps verify your dosage of radiation so a medical professional can better help you.  Radiation sickness is damage to your body caused by a very large dose of radiation often received over a short period of time (acute). The amount of radiation absorbed by the body — the absorbed dose — determines how sick you'll be. The risk of cancer depends on the dose and begins to build up even with very low doses. There is no "minimum threshold." Radiation sickness is also called acute radiation sickness, acute radiation syndrome or radiation poisoning. Common exposures to low-dose radiation, such as X-ray or CT examinations, do not cause radiation sickness.
