Did Astronauts Face Dangerous Radiation During Apollo Missions?

ello,
there is a knowledge that above Earth's magnetosphere cosmic radiation is extremely high and unsafe for human life.
the lowest point of Earth's magnetosphere is 70.000 km,
the range between Earth and moon equals ~380.000 km,
we know that moon doesn't have own magnetic field.
So my question is -was astronauts damaged by cosmic radiation during appollo missions.
if not-why?

Radiation increases with height even on the surface of earth, rises significantly once you reach the Van Allen belt and drops again afterwards.
For long journeys (to Mars, for example, or for a permanent base on Moon), this is a significant issue. For a few days, the radiation level is acceptable.

The total radiation received by the astronauts varied from mission to mission but was measured to be between 0.16 and 1.14 rads (1.6 and 11.4 mGy), much less than the standard of 5 rem (50 mSv) per year set by the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission for people who work with radioactivity.

ty very much for link and answer, this is very interesting to know
