We limited this study to use of the 6-MV beam with which photons comprise the principal component of scatter radiation. However, at higher radiation levels above 18 MV, neutrons also start playing ...

Background: Effects of direct radiation on implantable cardiac devices have been well studied. However, the effects of scatter radiation are not as clear. Recommendations on management of patients ...

For the investigator-initiated ATTENUATE trial, researchers used the 11 x 34” RADPAD Orange, which Medranda calls a ...

These fissures can cause the light that enters the eye to scatter, creating problems with blurred vision, glare, contrast, and depth perception. » Is it possible to diagnose radiation-induced eye lens ...

Remember: Not attempting to minimize patient dose is equivalent to neglecting your own radiation protection. » Where should I stand in relation to the X-ray tube during a fluoroscopic procedure? The ...

IN a letter to NATURE of Dec. 1, 1928 (vol. 122, p. 843), I gave a formula for the intensity of the radiation scattered at right angles first by one and then by a second electron. In this formula ...

Pollutants in the air can absorb and scatter sunlight, thereby lowering the intensity of the sun's radiation reaching the ...
