Its ionising radiation attacks soft tissue, destroying the cells, so that, in time, as it is spreads throughout the body it results in painful multiple organ failure. Although it is a solid metal at room temperature, it is said to be soluble in water and so can be t...
ionising radiation, including the tumour biology [35]. The interpretation of the correlation between absorbed dose and biological effect depends on where the absorbed dose value of the lesion is located on the “absorbed dose–response curve”, i.e., in which zone (zone 1, 2 or 3, see ...
In addition, ultrasound is limited by its small field of view and subsequent difficulty in determining an accurate number or extent of liver lesions. The advantages in utilising MRI for liver lesions include the lack of ionising radiation, good multi-planar spatial resolution (which in particular ...
And they didn't come with a "stereoscope"; you can't view ionising radiation with a View-Master. They came with aspinthariscope. (Perhaps the original piece as written had this right, but a sub-editor helpfully "corrected" it.)
