Who invented radiation oncology?
Radiation oncology arose as our understanding of radiation and its effects on the body improved and was coupled with a greater knowledge of cancer and how it could be treated. As x-rays were discovered in the late 19th century, the history of this branch of medicine is long. It would be unfair and inaccurate to ascribe to a single individual the invention of radiation oncology.

What use is alpha radiation?
It is used in smoke detectors as it cannot travel far in air. Alpha radiation is emitted and as long as the detector in the device is receiving the alpha radiation, then no smoke is present. When smoke particles are present, they interrupt the radiation, and so the detector doesn't pick up the radiation, causing the alarm to go off.

Mummification was a common practice for the wealthy citizens in Ancient Egypt. Mummification involved two steps; embalming and wrapping. The embalmers would first wash the body with palm wine and rinse it with water from the Nile. Then the internal organs would be removed through a cut on the left side of the body. The brain was then removed as well with a long hook. The body was then covered and stuffed with natron to dry it. After forty days the body was washed again and rubbed with oils. The dried organs were then wrapped in linen and returned to the body. The body was also stuffed with sawdust and other materials. The last step was to wrap the entire body in fine strips of linen.
