Radiation is the emission (sending out) of energy from any source. The light that comes from the sun is a source of radiation, as is the heat that is constantly coming off our bodies. When talking about radiation, however, most people think of specific kinds of radiation such as that produced by radioactive materials or nuclear reactions. Most forms of radiation have not been linked to cancer. Only high frequency radiation (ionizing radiation and ultraviolet radiation) has been proven to cause genetic damage, which can lead to cancer.
One type of molecule that is sensitive to ionizing radiation is DNA, the part of the cell that contains the genes (blueprints) for each person's characteristics. Ionizing radiation can lead to a mutation (change) in a cell's DNA, which could contribute to cancer, or to the death of the cell. All cells in the body can be damaged by ionizing radiation. The amount of damage is related to the dose of radiation received by the cell. While the process of cellular change from radiation takes only a fraction of a second, other changes such as the beginning of cancer may take years to develop.
X-rays have a huge impact on patients that result in the cause of cancer. The way in which x-rays work, they emit an amount of radiation onto your body and use a picture capture system in order to take pictures. The problem with this is that the radiation generated from the machine has to be strong enough to see through you.
X-rays destroy the cells in your body reproducing more cancer cells that might cause cancer.
Over-exposure can cause soft tissue damage, burns, sterility , and possibly cancer.
Yes, and breathing the fumes when working with it has been found to be a cause of cancer.
There are varities of Cancer..People get cancer because sometime the body functions might stop working and the part will be dead and the other reason is that you can get cancer from drinking too much alcohol that will cause kidney failure and also if you smoke you can get lung cancer.
It is very risky to work even with dental x rays when pregnant.
No, Powerade does not cause cancer.
no it cannot cause a cancer
what is the major cause of carcinoma cancer
botox cause cancer yes or no
No they don't cause cancer.
No, talking cannot cause cancer. yes it can cause all types of cancer and Brad is awsome
No, these devices do not cause cancer or they would not be used in hospitals. They can detect cancer and are also used on pregnancy so they do not cause cancer!
Lung Cancer has surpassed breast cancer as the leading cause of cancer deaths in women.
