2. Radiology - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiology

   A radiologist interpreting magnetic resonance imaging. Dr. Macintyre's X-Ray Film (1896) Radiology ( / ˌreɪdɪˈɒlədʒi / rey-dee-ol-uh-jee) is the medical specialty that uses medical imaging to diagnose diseases and guide their treatment, within the bodies of humans and other animals. It began with radiography (which is why its name has a ...

3. X-ray scattering techniques - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray_scattering_techniques

   X-ray reflectivity is an analytical technique for determining thickness, roughness, and density of single layer and multilayer thin films. Wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS), a technique concentrating on scattering angles 2θ larger than 5°. Spectrum of various inelastic scattering processes that can be probed with inelastic X-ray scattering ...

4. Medical physics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_physics

   Medical physics [1] deals with the application of the concepts and methods of physics to the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of human diseases with a specific goal of improving human health and well-being. [2] Since 2008, medical physics has been included as a health profession according to International Standard Classification of ...

5. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray_photoelectron...

   X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy ( XPS) is a surface-sensitive quantitative spectroscopic technique based on the photoelectric effect that can identify the elements that exist within a material (elemental composition) or are covering its surface, as well as their chemical state, and the overall electronic structure and density of the electronic ...

6. Radiochemistry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiochemistry

   Radiochemistry is the chemistry of radioactive materials, where radioactive isotopes of elements are used to study the properties and chemical reactions of non-radioactive isotopes (often within radiochemistry the absence of radioactivity leads to a substance being described as being inactive as the isotopes are stable ).

7. Wavelength-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wavelength-dispersive_X...

   Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Wavelength-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy ( WDXS or WDS) is a non-destructive analysis technique used to obtain elemental information about a range of materials by measuring characteristic x-rays within a small wavelength range. The technique generates a spectrum in which the peaks correspond to specific x ...

8. Radiation protection - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiation_protection

   Radiation protection. Radiation protection, also known as radiological protection, is defined by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) as "The protection of people from harmful effects of exposure to ionizing radiation, and the means for achieving this". [1] Exposure can be from a source of radiation external to the human body or due to ...

9. Electromagnetic spectrum - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_spectrum

   The electromagnetic spectrum is the full range of electromagnetic radiation, organized by frequency or wavelength. The spectrum is divided into separate bands, with different names for the electromagnetic waves within each band. From low to high frequency these are: radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and ...
