What is radiology? When people here the word radiology they think x-ray. To me‚ radiology means more than just taking an x-ray. Radiology is a science dealing with high-energy radiation that is used to treat and diagnose disease. Radiology technologists have more to do than just take an X-ray image of the body. Some tasks a technologist have to be able to perform include; taking their time to protect patients and themselves from radiation exposure‚ diagnosing a precise image of certain body parts

Assuming firstorder diffraction (n= 1 in the Bragg equation)‚ What is the interlunar spacing of silicon? nλ = 2d sin θ 1(154) = 2d sin 14.22 154 = 2d (0.245) 2d = 626.92 d = 313.46 2. A topaz crystal has an interplanar spacing (d) of 1.36 Å (1 Å = ). Calculate the wavelength of the X ray that should be used if θ = 15.0° (assume n = 1) nλ

connected to electricity. When the current is applied‚ the larger molecules move more slowly through the gel and the smaller molecules move faster. The different sized molecules form distinct bands on the gel which will be analysed by scientists. X-ray During the latter day of the 19 century‚ several physicists‚ among them Sir William Crooks (1832-1919) in Britain and Heinrich Hertz (1857-1894) with his assistant Phillip Lenard (1862-1947) in Germany‚ were interested in the discharges produced by

However‚ the radiation level still has an effect on the patient that can go unseen by the naked eye. Ionizing radiation produced by x-ray‚ gamma rays‚ alpha & beta rays‚ can have an effect on cellular structure and its reproduction process‚ as well as its DNA‚ the coding system to cellular life. The amount of damage can depend upon the type of ionizing radiation‚ its energy and the total amount of

In 1899‚ Ernest Rutherford discovered that the radiation emitted by uranium consisted of two kinds of rays: one with weak penetrating power‚ (alpha rays) and another with stronger penetrating power (beta rays). A third and even more penetrating kind of ionizing radiation (gamma ray) was discovered by the French physicist Paul Villard. Alpha rays have the least penetrating ability. They cannot permeate the

EFFECTS OF WATCHING TOO MUCH TV Humans welcome technological inventions and discoveries and the benefits they bring to people’s lives. This was the case when Wilhelm Roentgen discovered x-rays. Within five years‚ the British Army was using a mobile x-ray unit to locate bullets and shrapnel in wounded soldiers in the Sudan. TV was also invented with dreams of positive benefits for humanity – TV would make everyone global citizens. In addition‚ its global reach would provide providing educational

discovered by Rontgen‚ who noticed a fluorescing screen during the exposure to what was later called x-ray. Back then many people where wrong after coming up with conclusions that fluoroscopy would completely replace x-ray after knowing that in fluoroscopy there was movement available in the process. In fluoroscopy‚ a machine is used. One that can use either a continuous beam or it can do a pulsing x-ray beam. This machine used in fluoroscopy generates a high amount of electricity that creates a steam

The salesperson is called away. Charlie chooses the ‘X’ tent and pays the cashier $750.
