Is gamma radiation more harmful than X-ray radiation?
In general, gamma radiation is more harmful than X-rays. That's because gamma rays are higher frequency (shorter wavelength) and have higher energy than the X-rays. Certainly it can be seen that this applies for similar dosages. Standing all day in front of an X-ray machine and getting zapped will harm you more than walking past a small exposed cobalt-60 source. But photon for photon, the gamma ray does more tissue or biological damage than the X-ray does.
cheaters will not be helped
Yes and no. It is a dense metal but the xrays would react with the molecules in tungsten and that causes more xrays. This reaction is called compton scatter.
Can meat that passes through an X-ray be bad for you?
No, the X-rays won't negatively affect the meat. By the way, X-rays are used in industrial food manufacture to spot any metal that might have gotten into a product during production.
If your getting an X-ray how do you make it look broken?
when the doctor x-rays your ankle tighten your ankle like it's broken
Different between TB and pneumonia in X-ray?
They are both scarring but you cannot distinguish between them through a mere XRAY. You have to have a Tb skin test done or a sputum culture test
It means that your growth plates in your long bones have fused together. You will not grow any taller but you can fill out with exercise. How tall are others in your family? You may be just as tall as they are and normal for the family. Your genes have determined your height, so bulk up and think tall.
How can you locate hidden objects using x-ray mode?
Well you must first have an object to locate, a person to x-ray, and an x-ray machine, Take an x-ray image, then you look at the image and see where the object is located.
Ct (Cat) Scan
The doctor is looking at the growth plates which are located at the ends of long bones. If the growth plated have ossified this means that the person will not grow any more. Long bones do not grow from the middle outward they grow from the ends of the bones through constantly dividing and adding new bone. The x-rays will reveal this. If is determined that the bones are still growing then doctor will not give the growth hormone.
What is the difference between fracture and X-ray?
The XRAY is the EMR used to detect a fracture in your bone and a fracture refers to a broken bone in your body.
It can possibly cause birth defects, genetic defects and/or mutations, but that's not guarented....or it will be born with big genitals
X-rays are a part of the electromagnetic spectrum, a form of ionizing radiation having high energy, short wavelengths, and extraordinarily high frequencies (30 quadrillion to 30 quintillion Hz). X-rays are divided into two bands, HX (hard x-rays) and SX (soft x-rays).
Like all electromagnetic radiation other than visible light, x-rays are detected by their effects, and by using detectors or phosphor screens (e.g. fluoroscopes).
YES. X-rays are absorbed by metals and bone (ex: when you get your x-ray taken, all you can see is metal and bones, no skins or tissues).
Can an x ray reveal muscle loss?
No, X-rays only stop at bones, and go through any other organic matter. If you want to see muscle loss, do a CT scan.
Possibly, possibly not. It's you who takes the risk.
How many curies does an x ray have?
It depends on the settings generally 6-8 for sft tissue, and 15 for bone. By the way it is Millicuries.
How were x rays used on Oetzi Iceman?
X-Rays were used and also the Scientists used Radio Carbon Dating which then told and answered many of the Scientist questions about when the Iceman lived and many more.....
What else could look like pneumonia in a lung x ray?
Tumor. Pnuemonia shows up as white spots on the xray, it is known as infiltrates (fluid or pus). But growths can show up the same as they are denser than the surrounding tissue.
Xray was invented on November 8th, 1895 by Professor Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen.
High Frequency
