more than the regular amount but it is still small. Mary Masteron once said‚ “She came up with a whole way of doing fluoroscopy‚ which is kind of like a live version of X-ray‚ so that she could see the heart as it worked‚ not frozen in a picture.” Radiography is the most familiar type of radiation technique and it uses electromagnetic radiation instead of visible light and this type uses the smallest amount of radiation. Electromagnetic radiation is produced when charged particles of sufficient energy

It is no surprise I have exceptional interest in studying Diagnostic Radiography due to its practical science nature. My curiosity in practical science grew after my first dispersion of light by a triangular prism experiment. As a child‚ I was curious about the formation of rainbow and tried to workout how the rainbow is formed. My desire for science made me reject an offer from one of the prestigious
