New cards
7

X-ray vision

People at this time thought they could see through the clothes

New cards
8

Marie Curie

extracted radium from pitchblende

1899 Radium

she and her husband Pierre discovered pyroelectric effect crystals used for ultrasound

New cards
9

radithor

1928

radithor contained 1 microcurie each of ra-226 and ra-228. A.M.Byers died from drinking Radithor

New cards

suppose to invigorate sexual virility

New cards
12

properties

  1. travel in straight lines (many areas, many ways but always straight)

  2. Invisible

  3. Highly Penetrating (strong light can see bone)

  4. darken photographic film

  5. polyenergetic (some x-ray strong, some weak)

  6. cause ionization (means most of the film will light up when exposed to radiation)

  7. electrically neutral

  8. chemical & biological changes

  9. causes scatter radiation (weaker strength of x-ray)

  10. causes secondary radiation (bound off patient goes to technologist)

  11. travel at the speed of light

  12. produces a small amount of heat during interactions

  13. causes certain chemicals to fluoresce (barium platinocyanid)

  14. cannot be focused by a lens
