What is cobalt therapy also called?

It is sometimes called radiation therapy, x-ray therapy radiation treatment, radiotherapy, electron beam therapy, or irradiation


Who proved the existence of the electron?

Crookes observed that the cathodic rays are deflected by a magnetic field and concluded that this beam is negatively charged. Thomson established that the beam is composed from a new type of particles called by Fitzgerald electrons. But many scientists contributed to the discovery of the electron.


What is a detection beam on a microscope?

A detection beam on a microscope is a focused light or electron beam used to capture the signals emitted by a sample under observation. It helps to gather information about the specimen's properties, such as its structure, composition, or fluorescence. Detection beams are crucial in generating images or data in various microscopy techniques, such as optical and electron microscopy.


What is the difference between a compound microscope and an electron microscope?

Compound microscopes (also called compound light microscopes) employ light and an array of glass lenses to magnify an object. (This is distinguished from a simple microscope of one lens.) An electron microscope uses a beam of electrons to magnify an object. The lensing system employs electric and magnetic fields and is specialized for applications requiring much higher magnification. See related links.


What was a beam of electrons first called?

a beam of electrons was first called a cathode ray.

Radiation therapy is also known as?

Radiation therapy, sometimes called radiotherapy, x-ray therapy radiation treatment, cobalt therapy, electron beam therapy, or irradiation uses high energy, penetrating waves or particles such as x rays, gamma rays, proton rays, or neutron rays to destroy cancer cells or keep them from reproducing


What does electron beam therapy use?

Electron beam therapy uses high-energy electron beams to deliver radiation treatment to cancerous tumors. By targeting the tumor site with precise radiation doses, electron beam therapy can help destroy cancer cells while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue.


What are cathode rays also known as?

Electron beam or e-beam


In the vacuum tube of the X-ray machine what is the point where the electron beam interacts with the anode called?

This point, the place where the electron beam strikes the anode, is generally called the target.


What is called a microscope that uses a beam of electrons to examine a specimen?

This is called electron microscope.


Why electron is called electron?

Electron microscopes fire a beam of electrons at a target, then measure exactly how they are reflected. (electrons exist as particles & waves) A computer then generates an image from the data recieved. Also, cheese.


A microscope that uses a beam of electrons to examine a specimen is called a?

So far as I know, this would be called an electron microscope.
