New research finds that low doses of radiation equivalent to three CT scans, which are considered safe, give cancer-capable cells a competitive advantage over normal cells. Low doses of radiation ...
Risk of Bleomycin-Related Pulmonary Toxicities and Operative Morbidity After Postchemotherapy Retroperitoneal Lymph Node Dissection in Patients With Good-Risk Germ Cell Tumors Men were randomly ...
Ionizing radiation, such as x-rays, has a harmful effect on the cardiovascular system even at doses equivalent to recurrent CT imaging, a new study published in the International Journal of Radiation ...
High-dose radiation treatment, called stereotactic body radiotherapy, appears to be safe and as effective as standard radiation treatment for certain patients with pancreatic cancer whose tumors are ...
Humans and other animals may make natural radiation detectors in their blood. Some microRNAs, tiny pieces of genetic material that help regulate protein production, change levels in the blood of mice ...
Like all procedures that involve a radioactive substance, nuclear medicine techniques that use radiopharmaceuticals generate radiation that could potentially have adverse effects on a patient.
Low doses of radiation equivalent to three CT scans, which are considered safe, give cancer-capable cells a competitive advantage over normal cells in healthy tissue, scientists have discovered.
