What is resonance relating to nmri?
NMRI means Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging NMRI means Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging
What type of radiation do nuclear weapons emit?
Nuclear weapons emit nuclear radiation, with gamma radiation being the most common and dangerous.
Is radiation good for nuclear energy?
Radiation is a consequence of nuclear energy. In fact, without the radiation of a large neutron flux, nuclear energy would not exist.
Is it true that nuclear radiation comes from the decay of atomic nuclei?
Yes, the decay of unstable atomic nuclei is the source of nuclear radiation.
What are 3 main types of nuclear radiation?
1) Nuclear 2)Radiation 3)Your welcome
Is nuclear radiation friend or foe?
Nuclear radiation can be both friend and foe. It is used in various medical applications, such as cancer treatment and diagnostic imaging. On the other hand, exposure to high levels of nuclear radiation can be harmful and have detrimental effects on human health and the environment, as seen in nuclear accidents like Chernobyl and Fukushima.
How is medicine used today?
Diagnostic Nuclear Medicine ImagingIn Nuclear Medicine imaging, radiopharmaceuticals are taken internally, for example intravenously or orally. Then, external detectors (gamma cameras) capture and form images from the radiation emitted by the radiopharmaceuticals. This process is unlike a diagnostic X-ray where external radiation is passed through the body to form an image. Nuclear medicine imaging may also be referred to as radionuclide imaging or nuclear scintigraphy.Nuclear medicine tests differ from most other imaging modalities in that diagnostic tests primarily show the physiological function of the system being investigated as opposed to traditional anatomical imaging such as CT or MRI. Nuclear Medicine imaging studies are generally more organ or tissue specific (e.g.: lungs scan, heart scan, bone scan, brain scan, etc.) than those in conventional radiology imaging, which focus on a particular section of the body (e.g.: chest X-ray, abdomen/pelvis CT scan, head CT scan, etc.). In addition, there are nuclear medicine studies that allow imaging of the whole body based on certain cellular receptors or functions. Examples are whole body PET or PET/CT scans, Gallium scans, white blood cell scans, MIBG and Octreotide scans.Nuclear Medicine TherapyIn Nuclear Medicine therapy, the radiation treatment dose is also administered internally (e.g. intravenous or oral routes) rather from an external radiation source.Molecular MedicineIn the future, Nuclear Medicine may be known as Molecular Medicine. As our understanding of biological processes in the cells of living organism expands, specific probes can be developed to allow visualization, characterization, and quantification of biologic processes at the cellular and subcellular levels. Nuclear Medicine is an ideal specialty to adapt to the new discipline of molecular medicine, because of its emphasis on function and its utilization of imaging agents that are specific for a particular disease process.surMedical.com Team
Who works with x-rays radiation nuclear medicine ultrasound?
Radiographers and radiologists, and scientists.
What are the uses of nuclear radiation?
Nuclear Warfare to kill people, according to the first answer to this question. Nuclear medicine is the use of radiation to treat or cure disease. It is often used in cancer treatments. Nuclear imaging is the use of radiation to create images, for example, to follow pattern of blood flow in internal organs. Radiography uses radiation (x-rays) to create an image that contrasts dense areas of a body with softer areas, for example, in dentistry or orthopedics. Nuclear radiation is used to make batteries for spacecraft. Nuclear radiation is used in ionizing smoke detectors. Nuclear radiation creates much of the heat inside the earth. Without it the core would solidify and earth would not be habitable. Naturally occurring nuclear radiation is used to locate fault lines and to place dates on volcanic eruption. Nuclear radiation produces about 10% of the world's electricity. Radiation was used for peaceful purposes many years before it was used for bombs. Most uses of radiation are peaceful and productive.

What are some of the positive effects or uses of nuclear chemistry?
The positive uses of nuclear chemistry is its application in the medical field for imaging. It is a very useful diagnostic tool. Radiation and radioisotopes also have applications in agriculture for insect control.
What are the signs of nuclear radiation?
There are no immediate signed of nuclear radiation.
What type of electromagnetic radiation is used in imaging and radiation oncology?
Gamma rays.
How does nuclear medicine work?
Nuclear medicine is a form or medical imaging where we take drugs that we know what they do in the body, and attach a radioactive atom to each of the molecules so that as the drugs is being used by the body, we can image it with special cameras called gamma cameras. We also do some forms of therapy for thyroid disorders, liver tumors, and bone pain palliation. I hope that's a good enough answer for this general question, but if more is needed, just let me know.
What type of radiation do nuclear weapons emit?
Nuclear weapons emit nuclear radiation, with gamma radiation being the most common and dangerous.
What does Yucca Mountain have to do with nuclear radiation?
people are planning to store nuclear radiation there.
How radiation affected by surface temperature?
Nuclear radiation is not affected at all, but radiation by Electromagnetic Radiation is. This is a straight Physics topic, not Nuclear Energy.
