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

Preparation Outline Public Speaking March 8‚ 2013 Specific Purpose: To inform my audience about radiation therapy. Central Idea: To clearly understand radiation therapy‚ you must know about the different types and side effects. Introduction During my life‚ I have seen how harsh cancer can be. It has took a toll of many people’s lives and changed families all over. I have witnessed it first hand as it has affected my family and has taken people from me who were very important. Experiencing

Concepts of Radiation Radiation * Emission of energy from an atom and the transmission of this energy through space. * Energy propagated in a material medium or space. * Energy in transit. What are the types of radiation? * Radiation is of two general types in our environment. * They are called non-ionizing and ionizing. Ionization * the energy transferred to the electrons causes them to be pulled away or removed from an atom entirely. * The result is the

Adaptive Radiation An example of adaptive radiation occurring after a mass extinction is the extinction that killed off the dinosaurs. What caused this mass extinction was when a massive comet hit earth‚ off the Yucatan Peninsula. However‚ the mammals that survived this catastrophic event for the most part‚ survived because they could burrow in holes for shelter. Regardless‚ about 90% of all life on earth was destroyed. This led to an opportunity for the surviving plants and animals to disperse

Radiation Exposure Do you know much radiation you are exposed to everyday? Many people are not aware of the radiation levels around them on a daily basis. I believe that exposure to radiation should be minimal. I think protection and prevention is vital. Being aware of the health risks and what can be done to protect yourself should be a well known piece of knowledge. If followed‚ this knowledge can help reduce radiation exposure levels. Exposure to radiation is higher today than it has ever

What You Need to Know About Radiation Therapy‚ Teen WHAT IS RADIATION THERAPY? Radiation therapy is a type of cancer treatment that uses high-energy waves of radiation to kill cancer cells or shrink tumors. These waves are like fast-moving X-rays. The rays are strong enough to destroy unhealthy cells. In radiation therapy‚ the radiation may be delivered from outside your body or from a source of radiation that is put inside your body. External radiation is usually used‚ though you may have both

Goetz‚ the Clinical Coordinator for Radiation Therapy at CCBC‚ came to Eastern Technical High School to speak with the Allied Health students about the Radiation Therapy program and profession. Radiation Therapists (RT) use high power x-rays to treat tumors and keloids. Therapy only treats the site of disease contrary to chemotherapy‚ which goes directly into the bloodstream and kills cells all over the body. The oncologist writes a prescription for radiation based on the patient’s stage of cancer
