Medical physics is the application of physics to medicine or healthcare, using the physic concepts, theories, and methods to help screen, diagnoses, or treatment. Radiation is used in medical application, which is an energy that transfers from one place to another in the form of a wave or particle. There are two types of radiation, ionising and non-ionisng.

what does IR(ME)R stand for? CORRECT ANSWER Ionising radiation (medical exposure) Regulations What does IR(ME)R relate to? CORRECT ANSWER the safety of patients undergoing exposure of x-rays What does ALARP mean? CORRECT ANSWER As low as responsibly possible What do the initials RPS stand for? CORRECT ANSWER Radiation Protection Supervisor What responsibilities does the RPS have? CORRECT ANSWER They ensure there are local rules and that all staff are complying with them. What does...

Radiography - Answer-Is the use of electromagnetic radiation to form 2 dimentional images of the inside of the human body x-ray image - Answer-Radiogaph Radioopaque - Answer-Appears white (Light/grey) areas of the film after exposure. This shows structures that radiation does NOT easily pass through on the film Radioluscent - Answer-Appears Black (dark) areas on the film after exposure. This shows that structures that radiation can easily pass through on a film. Intraoral film - Answer-Fi...
