How did Marie Curie help modern day?
by pioneering radiation studies which helped lead to their medical uses.
What home appliance uses gamma rays?
No home appliance uses gamma rays. Gamma rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation that are primarily used in industrial and medical applications, such as in radiation therapy machines for cancer treatment.
What are some of the beneficial uses of radiation?
Radiation is used in medical imaging technologies such as X-rays and CT scans to diagnose and treat various conditions. It is also used in cancer treatment through radiation therapy to target and destroy cancer cells. Additionally, radiation is utilized in sterilizing medical equipment and food products to ensure safety.
What did Marie curie did as a scientist?
Discovered the medical uses of X-Rays, after which her husband died of cancer (probably because of radiation poisoning).
A list with explanation of at least 3 medical medical uses of radioactive materials?
The explanation is the effect of ionizing radiation on tissues and materials.Three uses are:- sterilizing of instruments and parapharmaceutic items- diagnostic with radioactive isotopes (scintigraphy)- treatment of cancers with radioactive isotopes
What are three uses of gamma rays?
Three uses of gamma rays are in cancer treatment (radiation therapy), sterilization of medical equipment and food, and non-destructive testing in industries such as aerospace and automotive.
What is the difference between radiology and radiography?
Radiology is the examination of the inner structure of opaque objects using X-rays or other penetrating radiation. In the radiation branch of medical science, radiology is the use of X-rays or other penetrating radiation for examination and/or treatment of medical conditions. Radiography is photography that uses other kinds of radiation than visible light to produce an image on a radiosensitive surface by radiation.
What are uses in medicine for radiation?
Some cancers are treated with radiation.
What are some positive uses of nuclear radiation?
One application is in neutron bombs. At 500 times the lethal dosage of radiation, they will almost instantly kill a tank crew that is inside of their tank. A medical application could be in the treatment of cancer, but it is unknown if it is more practical than other methods of radiotherapy.
What are the medical uses for thorium?
Thorium hasn't medical uses.
