imagine that the orderly process of replacing damaged cells into new cells in your body stops? This is what happens with people who get cancer and if their treatment is not done fast, it can lead to death. Gamma knife therapy uses cobalt-60’s gamma radiation to destroy cancerous growth. In this paper, I will reflect on the research on cobalt-60 and its impact in the field of cancer, its impact on society and its pros and cons. “Cobalt was discovered in 1735 by a Swedish scientist named George…

BREAST CANCER DETECTION BY T-SHAPED SLOTTED RECTANGULAR MICROSTRIP PATCH ANTENNA Abstract This Paper shows the great achievement in the breast cancer detection by microwave imaging ,in this paper firstly the T-Shaped Slotted RMPA is designed for ISM band Application at 2.45 GHz and resonated at particular frequency by iterations on the simulation software and very low losses is shown on particular exact frequency is 32.2dB ,after that The Breast Phantom model with cancer tissues and RMPA…

radioactivity. Within this radiation lab experiment, we put the following hypothesis to the test: If the distance from the source, in centimeters, is increased then the Ionizing Radiation does is expected to decrease because the radiation decreases as it gets farther away from the radiation emitter, due to the loss of energy from the radioactive particles as they move through the air. The hypothesis stated above is accepted because of the overall decrease of radiation as the distance from the…

mesothelioma include surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy. In surgery a part of the abdominal tissue is cut out to remove the tumor. At times the doctor may also need to remove a lung or a portion of the diaphragm as per the requirement of the surgery. Radiation therapy, the second method, requires the application of high energy X-rays to shrink the tumor and kill the malignant cells. The rays may be applied from an external machine or by placing the radiation source directly to the…

cancer, which uses forms of radiation. It uses high-energy rays to treat disease and it works by destroying cancer cells in the area that's being treated. With external radiotherapy a carefully controlled beam of radiation targets the area where the cancer cells are found. A team of radiation therapists, cancer specialists and physicists try to work out the best way to target the cancer whilst minimising the damage to other tissue. For curing cancer the radiation needs to be very carefully…

There are four types of external-beam radiation therapy: Three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT), Intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), Proton beam therapy, and Stereotactic radiation therapy. 3D-CRT has special computers creating detailed 3D pictures of the cancer allowing the treatment team to target the beam more accurately. With this method, they are able to use higher doses of radiation while having reduced risk of healthy tissue damage. IMRT uses a Varian Clinac iX-S…

Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer among men, behind skin cancer. Although that is a startling fact, prostate cancer can often be successfully treated. To better understand how prostate cancer affects the male body, it is a good idea to know the body parts around it and how they work. The prostate is a gland that is only found in males, sitting below the bladder and in front of the rectum. The prostate gland makes some of the fluid that protects and nourishes the sperm cells in…

of protons. Radioactive decays also are a process which has an unstable atomic nucleus and which causes it to lose energy this because of radiation, for example there three main types of radioactive decay alpha, beta, and gamma particle. If a material has unstable nuclei it would be considered as radioactive. If an atom has emitted an alpha, or beta radiation it nucleus would change and become an nucleus of an different element. This would be because the number of protons in the nucleus would…

any individual, in any stage of life, in any part of the body. Despite the fact that almost 40% of people will be diagnosed with cancer at some point in their lives, cures and treatments are few and far between. Chemotherapy--in conjunction with radiation and surgery--is one of the leading treatments for all sorts of cancer. But this is a harsh _____, and it takes a physiological toll on the human body. In the early 19th century, German chemist Paul Ehrlich coined the term chemotherapy to…

INTRODUCTION: Cancer exists as a leading cause of death worldwide, treatments are available in a wide range but also side effects are harshly associated to it. Chemotherapy is most widely suited and recommended treatment of any cancer type. It is the conventional concept that chemotherapy drugs selectively killed damaged cells but novel generated facts explores that they also damages the normal cells also by the dependence of dosing. Hence, there exist fact to develop the approaches that…
