Mass-energy Equivalence

As early as 1905, long before the discovery of nuclear energy, the German physicist Albert Einstein proposed his theory of relativity demonstrating that  mass Mass Three-dimensional lesion that occupies a space within the breast Imaging of the Breast and energy are 2 manifestations of the same phenomenon. According to his formula E = m*c², the energy of 24 billion kilowatt-hours accounts for a mass Mass Three-dimensional lesion that occupies a space within the breast Imaging of the Breast of 1 kilogram. This massive energy is stored in atomic nuclei.

The acquisition of atomic energy is thus nothing more than converting some of the mass Mass Three-dimensional lesion that occupies a space within the breast Imaging of the Breast within the nuclei into energy. This simple logic formed the foundation of radiation Radiation Emission or propagation of acoustic waves (sound), electromagnetic energy waves (such as light; radio waves; gamma rays; or x-rays), or a stream of subatomic particles (such as electrons; neutrons; protons; or alpha particles). Osteosarcoma.

Osteosarcoma. The respective effect can vary greatly and may also be fatal in some individuals depending on the intensity and type of radiation Radiation Emission or propagation of acoustic waves (sound), electromagnetic energy waves (such as light; radio waves; gamma rays; or x-rays), or a stream of subatomic particles (such as electrons; neutrons; protons; or alpha particles). Osteosarcoma.

The following parameters must be defined in advance to describe the effect of ionizing radiation Radiation Emission or propagation of acoustic waves (sound), electromagnetic energy waves (such as light; radio waves; gamma rays; or x-rays), or a stream of subatomic particles (such as electrons; neutrons; protons; or alpha particles). Osteosarcoma.

Energy dose

The energy dose describes a quantity of energy absorbed by an object (e.g., tissue) exposed to radiation Radiation Emission or propagation of acoustic waves (sound), electromagnetic energy waves (such as light; radio waves; gamma rays; or x-rays), or a stream of subatomic particles (such as electrons; neutrons; protons; or alpha particles). Osteosarcoma. It is primarily dependent on the radiation Radiation Emission or propagation of acoustic waves (sound), electromagnetic energy waves (such as light; radio waves; gamma rays; or x-rays), or a stream of subatomic particles (such as electrons; neutrons; protons; or alpha particles). Osteosarcoma intensity of the ionizing radiation Radiation Emission or propagation of acoustic waves (sound), electromagnetic energy waves (such as light; radio waves; gamma rays; or x-rays), or a stream of subatomic particles (such as electrons; neutrons; protons; or alpha particles). Osteosarcoma and tissue absorption Absorption Absorption involves the uptake of nutrient molecules and their transfer from the lumen of the GI tract across the enterocytes and into the interstitial space, where they can be taken up in the venous or lymphatic circulation. Digestion and Absorption. The unit of the energy dose is the gray [Gy].

Ion dose

The ion dose is defined as the amount that provides radiation Radiation Emission or propagation of acoustic waves (sound), electromagnetic energy waves (such as light; radio waves; gamma rays; or x-rays), or a stream of subatomic particles (such as electrons; neutrons; protons; or alpha particles). Osteosarcoma strength. It is defined by the following formula:

Ion dose = released charge/ mass Mass Three-dimensional lesion that occupies a space within the breast Imaging of the Breast of the radiated substance

The ion dose is expressed in Coulomb/kilogram [C/kg].

Equivalent dose

The equivalent dose defines the strength or intensity of the biological effect of a specific dose of radiation Radiation Emission or propagation of acoustic waves (sound), electromagnetic energy waves (such as light; radio waves; gamma rays; or x-rays), or a stream of subatomic particles (such as electrons; neutrons; protons; or alpha particles). Osteosarcoma. The equivalent dose is expressed in sieverts [Sv].

Biological effect

Molecules are destroyed by ionizing radiation Radiation Emission or propagation of acoustic waves (sound), electromagnetic energy waves (such as light; radio waves; gamma rays; or x-rays), or a stream of subatomic particles (such as electrons; neutrons; protons; or alpha particles). Osteosarcoma. However, the damage caused solely by momentary radiation Radiation Emission or propagation of acoustic waves (sound), electromagnetic energy waves (such as light; radio waves; gamma rays; or x-rays), or a stream of subatomic particles (such as electrons; neutrons; protons; or alpha particles). Osteosarcoma and destruction is relatively low. The damage caused by the subsequent chemical reactions in the body is much greater.

The various forms of biological effect are:

  • Short-term exposure:
    From 0.2 to 1 Sv: Exposure to 0.2 to 1 Sv may result in so-called  radiation Radiation Emission or propagation of acoustic waves (sound), electromagnetic energy waves (such as light; radio waves; gamma rays; or x-rays), or a stream of subatomic particles (such as electrons; neutrons; protons; or alpha particles). Osteosarcoma sickness. The symptoms vary and may cause minor long-term damage or even death. The process depends on the dose of radiation Radiation Emission or propagation of acoustic waves (sound), electromagnetic energy waves (such as light; radio waves; gamma rays; or x-rays), or a stream of subatomic particles (such as electrons; neutrons; protons; or alpha particles). Osteosarcoma.
    From 4 Sv onward: In 50% of the cases, exposure to a dose of 4 Sv leads to death.
    From 7 Sv onward: Exposure to a dosage Dosage Dosage Calculation of 7 Sv is always fatal, due to weakened immune system Immune system The body’s defense mechanism against foreign organisms or substances and deviant native cells. It includes the humoral immune response and the cell-mediated response and consists of a complex of interrelated cellular, molecular, and genetic components. Primary Lymphatic Organs, burns Burns A burn is a type of injury to the skin and deeper tissues caused by exposure to heat, electricity, chemicals, friction, or radiation. Burns are classified according to their depth as superficial (1st-degree), partial-thickness (2nd-degree), full-thickness (3rd-degree), and 4th-degree burns. Burns, changes in DNA DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine). DNA Types and Structure or even mutations.
  • Intermediate equivalent doses:
    Mid-term equivalent doses equate to approx. 0.1 Sv, which is the dose that a person aged 76 years has received through cosmic/natural radiation Radiation Emission or propagation of acoustic waves (sound), electromagnetic energy waves (such as light; radio waves; gamma rays; or x-rays), or a stream of subatomic particles (such as electrons; neutrons; protons; or alpha particles). Osteosarcoma.
  • Lower equivalent doses:
    Lower doses include cosmic and terrestrial radiation Radiation Emission or propagation of acoustic waves (sound), electromagnetic energy waves (such as light; radio waves; gamma rays; or x-rays), or a stream of subatomic particles (such as electrons; neutrons; protons; or alpha particles). Osteosarcoma (natural radiation Radiation Emission or propagation of acoustic waves (sound), electromagnetic energy waves (such as light; radio waves; gamma rays; or x-rays), or a stream of subatomic particles (such as electrons; neutrons; protons; or alpha particles). Osteosarcoma).

The most dangerous type of radiation Radiation Emission or propagation of acoustic waves (sound), electromagnetic energy waves (such as light; radio waves; gamma rays; or x-rays), or a stream of subatomic particles (such as electrons; neutrons; protons; or alpha particles). Osteosarcoma is alpha radiation Radiation Emission or propagation of acoustic waves (sound), electromagnetic energy waves (such as light; radio waves; gamma rays; or x-rays), or a stream of subatomic particles (such as electrons; neutrons; protons; or alpha particles). Osteosarcoma. Its typically very short range ensures that the risk of harm is very low, and exposure to alpha radiation Radiation Emission or propagation of acoustic waves (sound), electromagnetic energy waves (such as light; radio waves; gamma rays; or x-rays), or a stream of subatomic particles (such as electrons; neutrons; protons; or alpha particles). Osteosarcoma can be screened using a simple sheet of paper. Direct tissue contact with an object emitting alpha rays, for instance, via inhalation of radioactive dust or swallowing Swallowing The act of taking solids and liquids into the gastrointestinal tract through the mouth and throat. Gastrointestinal Motility such objects is dangerous.
