| photons | Discrete concentrations of energy, apparently massless elementary particles, that move at the speed of light. They are the unit or quantum of electromagnetic radiation. Photons are emitted when electrons move from one energy state to another. (12 Dec 1998) |
| absorptiometry, photon | A noninvasive method for quantitating bone mineral content. It is used especially in the diagnosis of osteoporosis and also in measuring bone mineralization in infants. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| single photon emission computed tomography | <radiology> Tomographic imaging of metabolic and physiological functions in tissues, the image being formed by computer synthesis of photons of a single energy emitted by radionuclides administered in suitable form to the patient. The method uses radionuclides which emit a single photon of a given energy. The camera is then rotated 180 or 360 degrees around the patient to capture images at multiple positions along the arc. The computer then reconstructs the transaxial, sagittal, and coronal images from the 3-dimensional distribution of radionuclides in the target area scanned. The advantages of SPECT are that it can be used to observe biochemical and physiological processes as well as the size and volume of the organ. The disadvantage is that, unlike positron emission tomography where the positron-electron annihilation results in the emission of 2 photons at 180 degrees from each other, SPECT requires physical collimation to line up the photons, which results in the loss of available photons and hence degrades the image. Acronym: SPECT (20 Jun 2000) |

Photon was a live action series based on the infrared tag game popular in the 1980s. The series took place on Earth and in space on various worlds and involved a young human teen named Christopher Jarvis who is a champion player of Photon. He receives a mysterious message one day while playing and is transported to the ship of Mother One, the leader of the Federation of Light a galactic amalgam of beings dedicated to playing Photon and the power of good over evil. ...

| photon |
A particle of light. The energy of a photon depends on its frequency, which we view as color. Blue light has a higher frequency, and therefore energy, than red light.
