Q

when a cell is exposed to radiation, 4 occurrences can happen. when the radiation is high enough, it would pass through the cell with little chance of absorption because the higher the energy of radiation, the stronger the penetrability. tf

17
Q

it comes directly from a source, such as a radioactive substance or an x-ray tube, without interactions with matter

A

primary radiation

18
Q

it is primary radiation that interacted with a matter then hit a patient or machine that results in scattering of radiation

A

secondary radiation

it is a device that changes an x-ray beam into a visible image

A

image receptor
