- is a medical procedure that uses X-rays to produce real-time, moving images of the body's interior.

The AMERICAN ROENTGEN SOCIETY, the first American Radiology organization is founded.

OTHER MAN-MADE RADIATION SOURCES

- It happens when an electron moves through an electric potential difference (voltage)

The interaction between matter and radiation. IT OCCURS WHEN AN X-RAY PASSESS CLOSE TO AN ORBITAL ELECTRON OF AN ATOM AND TRANSFERS SUFFICIENT ENERGY TO THE ELECTRON TO REMOVE IT FROM THE ATOM.

HE SAID The strangest property associated with matter and energy is that they are INTERCHANGEABLE,

are streams of electrons observed in discharge tubes.

Energy in motion. KE = FRICTION “in every motion there is HEAT PRODUCTION”

Stored energy ; The ability to do work by virtue of position; Energy at rest. PE = mgh

is the process of making light rays parallel

Ability to do work

consists of the orbital electron and the atom from which it was separated

The unit of effective dose. It is used to express radiation exposure of populations and radiation risk in those populations.

HE IS AMERICAN PHYSIAN AND X-RAY PIONEER HE INTRODUCED DOUBLE EMULSION IMAGING

A special type of radiation that includes x-rays. ANY TYPE OF RADIATION THAT IS CAPABLE OF REMOVING AN ORBITAL ELECTRON FROM THE ATOM WITH WHICH IT INTERACTS.

the force exerted on a body under the influence of gravity

The Crookes tube consists of a glass envelope from which most of the air has been evacuated, creating a partial vacuum. This allows electrons (cathode rays) to travel more freely through the tube.

FIRST MEDICAL X- RAY IMAGE

It contains two main electrodes: a cathode (negative electrode) and an anode (positive electrode). When a high voltage is applied across these electrodes, electrons are emitted from the cathode and accelerate towards the anode.

E = mc2 MASS ENERGY EQUIVALENCE

is a passive electrical device used to transfer electrical energy from one circuit to another, via the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction

The Coolidge tube operates in a high vacuum environment, which allows for better control over the electron flow and reduces the risk of tube failure due to gas ionization. This increased the efficiency and reliability of the X-ray production process.

is a crucial process in radiography that involves removing low-energy X-ray photons from the beam spectrum.

Many university physics laboratories were investigating about the conduction of cathode rays or electron beams (e-beam)

All matter is composed of fundamental building blocks called

Roentgen’s term during the investigation.

TYPES OF OLD LIGHT AMPLIFIER TUBE

NATURAL ENVIRONMENTAL RADIATION

energy that is contained within the nucleus of an atom

the quantity of matter contained in any physical object.

Placing objects in the path of the cathode rays within the tube produces shadows on the opposite side, demonstrating the travel of particles in straight lines.

Anything that occupies space and has mass.

MODERN LIGHT AMPLIFIER TUBE

The Crookes tube consists of a glass envelope from which most of the air has been evacuated, creating a partial vacuum. This allows electrons (cathode rays) to travel more freely through the tube.

HE IS SERBIAN AMERICAN PHYSICIST. HE IMPROVED FLOUROSCOPE

E = mc2 MASS ENERGY EQUIVALENT

1. He had darkened his laboratory 2. Completely closed the Crooke’s tube with black photographic paper (so he could better visualize the effects of the cathode rays in the tube. 3. Then a plate coated with barium platinocyanide, a fluorescent material, happened to be lying on a bench top several meters from the Crooke’s tube glows. 4. The intensity of the glow increased as the plate was brought closer to the tube

He was an American electrical engineer and inventor. He developed the Snook apparatus, the first interrupterless device produced for X-ray work. The “Snook” X-ray tube is a diagnostic x-ray tube that had a unique approach to raising and lowering the internal gas pressure.

4 COMPONENTS OF NATURAL ENVIRONMENTAL RADIATION

Particulate and electromagnetic radiation emitted by the stars and sun.

Largest source of natural environmental radiation. An active gas that is produced by the natural decay of uranium. It emits alpha particle which are not penetrating, and therefore contributes a radiation dose only to the LUNG.

MOST IMPORTANT FOR RT; usually referred to us as Electromagnetic Radiation; Used in x-ray imaging.

It is released by a chemical energy.

Roentgen receives the first Nobel prize in physics.

Also known as moving grid •It absobrs scattered radiation while allowing useful radiation to reach the image receptor.

energy of motion at molecular motion; kinetic energy of molecules and is closely related to temperature; excitation/vibration = heat

Experiments with Crookes tubes contributed to the development of early atomic models, including J.J. Thomson's discovery of the electron and his plum pudding model of the atom.
