Radiation Safety Part 11 - Hodge Podge

        Help!  

Question
Answer
show .12  
🗑
Gonads have a QF of   show
🗑
show 8 to 1  
🗑
What factor contributes to the use of the Air Gap method?   show
🗑
What is GSD stand for?   show
🗑
show It is equivalent dose that if received by every member of the population, would be expected to produce the same genetic injury to the population as does the actual dose received by the irradiated individuals  
🗑
show 50% of the population will die in 30 days if exposed to 3 to 4 grays  
🗑
show Bone cancer, Osteosarcoma, the salts in the isotopes used for painting the watch dials mimicked salts and caused the mandible, bones, and other somatic issues.  
🗑
show Lung – inhalation of radioactive dust from rocks from the earth/caves. Not as common now due to safety standards. Black Lung Disease.  
🗑
Atomic bomb survivors provided years of data from what radiation outcome?   show
🗑
Ankylosing spondylitis treatments back in the early 1940's caused what stochastic effect?   show
🗑
show High  
🗑
show High  
🗑
show Cell death  
🗑
What is Atrophy   show
🗑
What is Desquamation   show
🗑
show bruising, broken blood vessels from radiation injury  
🗑
show Stochastic responses  
🗑
show Collective dose, to quantify a group of people or area of population  
🗑
show Total Effective Dose Equivalence. * Internal and External dose measurement of all radiation sources to an individual - on dosimeter report  
🗑
show Committed Effective Dose Equivalence. Measures internal radiation dose only  
🗑
What is Fractionation   show
🗑
What is SED50   show
🗑
What factors determine barrier thickness in the x-ray room design?   show
🗑
show Compton  
🗑
OSL dosimeters can be worn ___ months before changing   show
🗑
show yes, the aluminum strip is not damaged with processed  
🗑
Can TLD dosimeters be re-analyzed if questioned on accuracy?   show
🗑
Are TLD and OSL affected by visible light, heat and humidity?   show
🗑
show false - not alpha. Gamma is used in Radiation Therapy. Occupational dosimeters are for all radiation workers, not just radiographers.  
🗑
What is located in the probe in a Geiger Muller counter to detect radiation particles?   show
🗑
show Mean Marrow Dose  
🗑
Should repeat exposures be documented?   show
🗑
List the two inherent filtration components in the tube   show
🗑
show 100  
🗑
1 Si unit of "gray" is equal to ______ joule of energy deposited per kg of tissue   show
🗑
List the two types of ionizing radiation used Radiology on the EMS   show
🗑
show Electromagnetic Spectrum  
🗑
List the areas on the EMS that are not ionizing   show
🗑
The longer the wavelength the ____________________ the frequency   show
🗑
The short wavelengths on the EMS will have ________frequency   show
🗑
Although all EMS radiations travel at the same velocity (speed of light), how do they differ?   show
🗑
How are x-ray energy and x-ray wavelength related?   show
🗑
show Frequency (a cycle is a complete loop from 0, negative, positive, back to 0. The baseline is the 0.  
🗑
show primary beam  
🗑

What is defined as the reduction in intensity resulting from scattering and absorption process?   show
🗑
X-rays are electrically ____   show
🗑
What kind of effect do x-rays have on air?   show
🗑
How can the energy of an x-ray beam be described?   show
🗑
How many sets of collimators are there in the tube?   show
🗑
show to reduce the amount of off-focus radiation exiting the tube  
🗑

🗑
How is fluoroscopic magnification related to spatial resolution and patient dose?   show
🗑
What is the fluoroscopic feature that changes kV and/or mA according to part thickness? This assists in reducing dose   show
