| radiation damage, surface | <radiobiology> General term describing damage to the surface of the containment structure which directly interfaces with the thermonuclear plasma, includes such phenomena as radiation blistering, charged-particle (or neutron) sputtering, and spallation or exfoliation of layers of the surface.

| radiation dermatosis | Skin changes at the site of ionizing radiation, particularly erythema in the acute stage, temporary or permanent epilation, and chronic changes in the epidermis and dermis resembling actinic keratosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radiation fibrosis | The formation of scar tissue as a result of radiation therapy to the lung. (12 Dec 1998) |
| radiation inactivation | The technique of inactivating proteins in freeze dried (lyophilised) preparations using high energy particles (e.g. Electrons). One high energy particle can apparently inactivate all of the components of a multisubunit polypeptide, the method is therefore used to determine the molecular weight of functional oligomers. (18 Nov 1997) |
| radiation injuries | Harmful effects of non-experimental exposure to ionizing or non-ionizing radiation in chordates. (12 Dec 1998) |
| radiation injuries, experimental | Harmful effects of exposure to ionizing or non-ionizing radiation produced experimentally in chordates. (12 Dec 1998) |
| radiation leukaemia virus | A murine leukaemia virus isolated from radiation-induced lymphomas in c57bl mice. It is leukemogenic, thymotrophic, can be transmitted vertically, and replicates only in vivo. (12 Dec 1998) |
| radiation monitoring | The observation, either continuously or at intervals, of the levels of radiation in a given area, generally for the purpose of assuring that they have not exceeded prescribed amounts or, in case of radiation already present in the area, assuring that the levels have returned to those meeting acceptable safety standards. (12 Dec 1998) |
| radiation myelitis | Damage to the spinal cord from exposure to X-rays or other high energy radiation; usually radiation myelitis. Synonym: radiation myelitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radiation myelopathy | Damage to the spinal cord from exposure to X-rays or other high energy radiation; usually radiation myelitis. Synonym: radiation myelitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radiation of corpus callosum | The spreading out of the fibres of the corpus callosum in the centrum semiovale of each cerebral hemisphere. Synonym: radiatio corporis callosi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radiation oncologist | A physician specifically trained in the use of high energy X-rays to treat cancer. (09 Oct 1997) |
| radiation oncology | <study> The medical study of the use of radiation (X-rays, gamma rays or electrons) to destroy cancers. (09 Oct 1997) |
| radiation physicist | A nonmedically qualified person who specialises in the application of physics to plan and deliver irradiation, assisting the radiotherapist in planning and treatment. (16 Dec 1997) |
| radiation pneumonitis | Injurious effects of radiotherapy on the lungs. There are three phases in the reaction of the lungs to radiation injury: an acute phase occurring 1 to 2 months after exposure, a subacute phase 2 to 9 months after exposure, and a chronic or fibrotic phase more than 9 months after exposure. In the acute phase there is vascular damage, congestion, oedema, and mononuclear cell infiltration; in the subacute phase the alveolar walls are infiltrated with mononuclear inflammatory cells and fibroblasts; in the chronic phase, alveolar fibrosis and capillary sclerosis take place.

| radiation therapy |
Radiation therapy (or radiotherapy) is the medical use of ionizing radiation as part of cancer treatment to control malignant cells (not to be confused with radiology, the use of radiation in medical imaging and diagnosis). Although radiotherapy is often used as part of curative therapy, it is occasionally used as a palliative treatment, where cure is not possible and the aim is for symptomatic relief. ...

| radiation absorbed dose |
A measurement of the energy deposited in any material by ionizing radiation. One rad is equal to the absorption of 100 ergs of energy in every gram of the material exposed totheradiation.

| radiation therapy |
Radiation therapy (also called radiotherapy) uses high-energy radiation from x-rays and other sources to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Radiation may come from a machine outside the body (external radiation therapy) or from materials that produce radiation (radioisotopes) that are placed inside the body in the area where the cancer cells are found (internal radiation therapy, implant radiation, or brachytherapy). ...
