Download or read book Fundamentals Of Radiation Biology written by Susan B Klein and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2023-01-04 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fundamentals of Radiation Biology presents a contemporary, comprehensive review of the interactions between ionizing radiations and biological materials, tracking the consequences to three inevitable endpoints: cell restitution, cell death, or cell transformation.The introductory narrative is followed by examination of larger scale phenomena including tissue responses to radiation injury, organ failure modes, and resultant human illness including cancer. Ultimately, Fundamentals of Radiation Biology considers circumstantial radiation incidents impacting biological systems including radiological terrorism and radiation pollution remediation. Chapters presenting an overview of carcinogenesis and radiation therapy techniques based in radiobiology discuss two significant expansions central to the concerns of the text.This book takes an unprecedented narrative approach to radiobiology; each chapter expands on the fundamentals surveyed previously to lead the reader steadily to a panorama of radiation biocomplexity. No biological event happens in isolation. Actions evoke reactions that alter structures and cause living systems to adapt. It also examines the components constituting mammalian radiation response machinery and correlates them with resultant physiological behaviors.

Download or read book Radiation written by Ilya Obodovskiy and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2019-03-09 with total page 720 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author is ready to assert that practically none of the readers of this book will ever happen to deal with large doses of radiation. But the author, without a shadow of a doubt, claims that any readers of this book, regardless of gender, age, financial situation, type of professional activity, and habits, are actually exposed to low doses of radiation throughout their life. This book is devoted to the effect of small doses on the body. To understand the basic effects of radiation on humans, the book contains the necessary information from an atomic, molecular and nuclear physics, as well as from biochemistry and biology. Special attention is paid to the issues that are either not considered or discussed very briefly in existing literature. Examples include the ionization of inner atomic shells that play an essential role in radiological processes, and the questions of transformation of the energy of ionizing radiation in matter. The benefits of ionizing radiation to mankind is reflected in a wide range of radiation technologies used in science, industry, agriculture, culture, art, forensics, and, what is the most important application, medicine. Radiation: Fundamentals, Applications, Risks and Safety provides information on the use of radiation in modern life, its usefulness and indispensability. Experiments on the effects of small doses on bacteria, fungi, algae, insects, plants and animals are described. Human medical experiments are inhuman and ethically flawed. However, during the familiarity of mankind with ionizing radiation, a large number of population groups were subject to accumulation, exposed to radiation at doses of small but exceeding the natural background radiation. This book analyzes existing, real-life radiation results from survivors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Chernobyl and Fukushima, and examines studies of radiation effect on patients, radiologists, crews of long-distant flights and astronauts, on miners of uranium copies, on workers of nuclear industry and on militaries, exposed to ionizing radiation on a professional basis, and on the population of the various countries receiving environmental exposure. The author hopes that this book can mitigate the impact of radiation phobia, which prevails in the public consciousness over the last half century. Explores the science of radiation and the effects of radiation technologies and biological processes Analyzes the elementary processes of ionization and excitation Summarizes information about inner shells ionization and its impact on matter and biological structures Discusses quantum concepts in biology and clarifies the importance of epigenetics in radiological processes Includes case studies focusing on humans irradiated by low doses of radiation and its effects

This book was released on 2011-12-28 with total page 1049 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This renowned work is derived from the authors' acclaimed national review course (“Physics of Medical Imaging") at the University of California-Davis for radiology residents. The text is a guide to the fundamental principles of medical imaging physics, radiation protection and radiation biology, with complex topics presented in the clear and concise manner and style for which these authors are known. Coverage includes the production, characteristics and interactions of ionizing radiation used in medical imaging and the imaging modalities in which they are used, including radiography, mammography, fluoroscopy, computed tomography and nuclear medicine. Special attention is paid to optimizing patient dose in each of these modalities. Sections of the book address topics common to all forms of diagnostic imaging, including image quality and medical informatics as well as the non-ionizing medical imaging modalities of MRI and ultrasound. The basic science important to nuclear imaging, including the nature and production of radioactivity, internal dosimetry and radiation detection and measurement, are presented clearly and concisely. Current concepts in the fields of radiation biology and radiation protection relevant to medical imaging, and a number of helpful appendices complete this comprehensive textbook. The text is enhanced by numerous full color charts, tables, images and superb illustrations that reinforce central concepts. The book is ideal for medical imaging professionals, and teachers and students in medical physics and biomedical engineering. Radiology residents will find this text especially useful in bolstering their understanding of imaging physics and related topics prior to board exams.
