Explanation:
Applications Of Radiation: -
Medical applications: -
The uses of radiation in diagnosis and treatment have multiplied so rapidly in recent years that one or another form of radiation is now indispensable in virtually every branch of medicine. The many forms of radiation that are used include electromagnetic waves of widely differing wavelengths (e.g., radio waves, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X rays, and gamma rays), as well as particulate radiations of various types (e.g., electrons, fast neutrons, protons, alpha particles, and pi-mesons).
Imaging techniques: -
Advances in techniques for obtaining images of the body’s interior have greatly improved medical diagnosis. New imaging methods include various X-ray systems, positron emission tomography, and nuclear magnetic resonance imaging.
X-ray systems: -
In all such systems, a beam of X radiation is shot through the patient’s body, and the rays that pass through are recorded by a detection device. An image is produced by the differential absorption of the X-ray photons by the various structures of the body. For example, the bones absorb more photons than soft tissues; they thus cast the sharpest shadows, with the other body components (organs, muscles, etc.) producing shadows of varying intensity.
Positron emission tomography (PET): -
This imaging technique permits physicians to determine patterns of blood flow, blood volume, oxygen perfusion, and various other physiological, metabolic, and immunologic parameters. It is used increasingly in diagnosis and research, especially of brain and heart functions.
