They are used to treat cancer
Well , Gamma rays and X rays are both harmful and destructive in nature , but have significant advantages. 1. Gamma rays can destroy cancer cells and can treat cancer patients. 2. X rays can be used to check the human body for fracture , to treat the patient.
Radiation therapy uses high-energy radiation from x rays and gamma rays to kill the cancer cells.
X-Rays. They are an electromagnetic spectrum. Hope this answers your question.
Gamma rays can cause cancer by damaging the DNA within cells, leading to uncontrolled growth. In cancer treatment, gamma rays are used in radiation therapy to target and kill cancer cells. The high-energy radiation helps to destroy cancer cells and shrink tumors.
Laser have been used to treat BPH. They are not generally used to treat cancer.
Yes Gamma Rays can cause cancer, even a small exposure to Gamma ray can cause the risk of cancer, X-Rays and Visible light can cause cancer but need huge amounts of it exposed to the body, Gamma is used in Nuclear bombs because of all the energy it has, so if you're near a Nuclear bomb when it sets off, Your most likely to catch cancer ;)
One use of gamma rays is in cancer treatment, where they can be directed at cancer cells to destroy them.
Gamma rays are commonly used in medical imaging for procedures like PET scans and gamma knife surgery. They are also used in radiation therapy to treat cancer. In addition, gamma rays are used in industrial applications for inspecting welded joints and detecting flaws in metal components.
Look out the window, I'm right outside..... JK
It can be used in radiation therapy to treat cancer as the high-energy gamma rays can kill tumour cells. Source: I am a Nuclear Physicist working in MIT
