More than half a million Americans die from cancer every year. It is heart dropping to know that many people are victims of this terrible tragedy. Cancer has affected the lives of not only Americans but people from all over the world. Cancer is a disease in which abnormal cells divide uncontrollably and destroy body tissue‚ this means that cancer could occur in any part of the body. Although there are many deaths by this horrifying disease‚ there are many efficient treatments for cancer that are

Tattoos are the coolest way of expressing one’s interests and beliefs. Yet most people often outgrow their priorities with time and sooner or later set out in search of tattoo removal techniques. But thanks to the new laser technology that makes tattoo removal much safer and easier than the traditional salabrasion or excision procedures. Before opting to remove the ink using laser treatments‚ here are the important things you must know. Laser tattoo removal sends the ink out through the blood

Cancer does not always appear life threatening‚ in a few cases‚ resembling mastocytosis‚ people may live without it cured. Mastocytosis maintains as a form of cancer because cancer means mass growing of cells at an uncontrolled rate. Many cancers essentially lung cancer‚ may develop deadly. But few in the same manner with mastocytosis people‚ can live with it the rest of their lives without having any trouble or cause of death living with mastocytosis. A disease that affects few people‚ mastocytosis

Medical treatments vary according to the medical condition‚ in some cases a single disease could have at least two methods in which its treated. This has been develop further with the breakthroughs in medicine related technology‚ for example‚ cancer can be either treated through surgery or by the use of chemotherapy‚ in some sever cases both methods are used. This essay will compare and contracts between the surgical intervention and chemotherapy in treating cancer. Surgical intervention of cancer

Kalee Sorber Ms. Lawing Biology Honors MYP 15 May‚ 2016 Sorber/Malmgren Pedigree During this project‚ I found a lot of information about my family. Previously‚ I really only knew about my dad’s side of the family. After really putting it into perspective‚ the extent of my family‚ I realized how many people I didn’t even know about. There were some lapses in information including my grandfather on my mother’s side and my grandfather on my father’s side. This could have caused some abnormalities in

geometry. Procedure and Observations Part 1a): In the first part of the experiment the EGS code was configured to calculate the influence of voxel size and the number of photons on the amount of radiation dose deposited on a water phantom. A mono-energetic source of 2MeV with a radius of 2cm was chosen to be the particle beam. A trial with 1million particles incident on a water phantom at a voxel resolution of 1cm was simulated then another trial

radiation We can classify radiation into ionizing and non-ionizing radiation‚ according to the effects it produces on matter. Ionizing radiation includes cosmic rays‚ X rays and the radiation from radioactive materials. Non-ionizing radiation includes ultraviolet light‚ radiant heat‚ radio waves and microwaves.In medical practice ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) involve non-ionizing radiation. +light n heat radiation produced by the sun *ionizing radiation is produced by some

Answer: Radiation has a profound effect on matter. Particularly in forms where it has high energy. There are basically two kinds of radiation‚ and they are electromagnetic energy and particulate radiation. Low energy electromagnetic radiation isn’t generally hazardous‚ as long as the field strengths are low. You wouldn’t want to stand in front of a radar antenna when it’s radiating‚ but we are swept by low power electromagnet energy all the time. Those so-called radio waves are everywhere. Light
