Therefore, besides the absorbed dose, additional parameters need to be taken into account when considering the response to a treatment with ionising radiation, including the tumour biology [35]. The interpretation of the correlation between absorbed dose and biological effect depends on where the ...
Is protracted exposure to low doses of ionising radiation associated with an increased risk of solid cancer?In this cohort study, 308,297 workers in the nuclear industry from France, the United Kingdom, and the United States with detaile... David,B,Richardson,... - Bmj 被引量: 95发表:...
Activity and Power The nucleus of an isotope becomes more stable when it decays, therefore the energy E must be released and be carried away by the particle Long distance space probes require a nuclear power cell however if the activity is high to give high power then the source will not l...
Ionising radiation damages DNA in a random and dose-dependent fashion (this is simple physics). There is a mechanism to repair DNA damage. It is always active and does not need to be stimulated by low-level ionising radiation or any other carcinogen. This is because occasional mistakes in th...
Ionising radiation (gamma radiation and electron beam) can be effective as long as the dose is controlled to avoid severe changes. The HPGP and new scCO2 seem to be promising sterilization techniques. In addition, more studies are needed to evaluate the changes produced by the sterilization ...
