| radiosulfur | A radioactive isotope of sulfur; e.g., 35S. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| radiosurgery | A radiation therapy technique that uses a large number of narrow, precisely aimed, highly focused beams of ionising radiation. The beams are aimed from many directions circling the head and meet at a specific point. (16 Dec 1997) |
| radiotelemetering capsule | An instrument that transmits measurements by radio impulses, from within the body; e.g., measurements of pressure from within the small bowel. Synonym: radiopill. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radiotelemetry | See: telemetry, biotelemetry. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radiotherapeutic | Relating to radiotherapy or to radiotherapeutics. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radiotherapeutics | The study and use of radiotherapeutic agents. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radiotherapist | <specialist> (radiation oncologist) A medically qualified doctor who specialises in the use of irradiation for the treatment of cancer. In the UK, the radiotherapist is also called the Clinical Oncologist and is a Fellow of the Royal College of Radiologists. (16 Dec 1997) |
| radiotherapy | <oncology> The treatment of disease by ionising radiation. Origin: Gr. Therapeia = cure (18 Nov 1997) |
| radiotherapy dosage | The total amount of radiation absorbed by tissues as a result of radiotherapy. (12 Dec 1998) |
| radiotherapy localization | Planning the size and alignment of radiation beams to encompass the neoplasm to be treated. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radiotherapy planning, computer-assisted | Computer-assisted mathematical calculations of beam angles, intensities of radiation, and duration of irradiation in radiotherapy. (12 Dec 1998) |
| radiotherapy, adjuvant | Radiotherapy given to augment some other form of treatment such as surgery or chemotherapy. Adjuvant radiotherapy is commonly used in the therapy of cancer and can be administered before or after the primary treatment. (12 Dec 1998) |
| radiotherapy, computer-assisted | Computer systems or programs used in accurate computations for providing radiation dosage treatment to patients. (12 Dec 1998) |
| radiotherapy, high-energy | Radiotherapy using high-energy (megavolt or higher) ionizing radiation. Types of radiation include gamma rays, produced by a radioisotope within a teletherapy unit; X-rays, electrons, protons, alpha particles (helium ions) and heavy charged ions, produced by particle acceleration; and neutrons and pi-mesons (pions), produced as secondary particles following bombardment of a target with a primary particle. (12 Dec 1998) |
| radiothermy | Diathermy effected by heat from radiant sources. Origin: radio-+ G. Therme, heat (05 Mar 2000) |
| radiolysis |
the use of ionizing radiation to produce chemical reactions.
