Scientists have developed a new fluorine-based tracer that can be tracked using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to monitor ...

Terahertz waves, known as non-ionizing radiation, can turn into ionization radiation when sufficiently many terahertz photons are focused in space and time. A team led by scientists in Korea and the U ...

If you didn’t know, OSHA is working to help protect employees who are exposed to ionizing radiation as an effect of their job environments. Check out the OSHA ionizing radiation page for information ...

High doses of X-rays and other kinds of ionizing radiation can damage the DNA present in the cell nucleus, a phenomenon which can both lead to the development of cancer in humans and be used to kill ...

When electromagnetic radiation is ionizing, it breaks the atomic bond and creates ions, which are atoms and molecules with fewer electrons or a greater number of electrons than they normally have.

STUDIES of the biologic effects of ionizing radiation began very shortly after Roentgen's discovery of the x-ray in December, 1895. The special characteristics of this radiation, which differentiated ...
