If you decrease the amount of time you spend near the source of radiation, you will decrease the amount of radiation exposure you receive. To imagine this, think of a trip to the beach as a comparison. For instance, if you spend a lot of time on the beach, you will be exposed to the sun, and, ultimately, get a sunburn. If you spend less time in the sun and more time in the shade, your sunburn will be much less severe. This is similar to the way radiation exposure works.
