|---|---|
| DAD | delayed afterdepolarization; diffuse alveolar damage; dispense as directed |
| DBD | definite brain damage; dibromodulcitol |
| DDSI | digital damage severity index |
| din | damage inducible [gene] |
| beta radiation | <radiobiology> Radiant energy from a source of beta rays. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| radiation | <radiobiology> Propagation of energy through space. In the context of this report, it is electromagnetic radiation (X-rays or gamma rays) or corpuscular radiation (alpha particles, electrons, protons, neutrons) capable of producing ionisation. (16 Dec 1997) |
| radiation anaemia | Hypoplastic anaemia sometimes occurring after high-level acute or low-level chronic exposure to ionizing radiation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radiation biology | Field of science that studies the biological effects of ionizing radiation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radiation biophysics | The study of the effects of radiation on cells, tissues, biomolecules, and living organisms. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radiation burn | A burn caused by exposure to radium, X-rays, atomic energy in any form, ultraviolet rays, etc. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radiation caries | Caries of the cervical regions of the teeth, incisal edges, and cusp tips secondary to xerostomia induced by radiation therapy to the head and neck. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radiation cataract | A cataract caused by excessive or prolonged exposure to ultraviolet rays, X-rays, radium, beta rays, gamma rays, heat, or radioactive isotopes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radiation chemistry | The science concerned with the effects of ionizing or nuclear radiation on chemical reactions or materials. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radiation chimera | An organism whose body contains cell populations of different genotypes as a result of the injection of foreign cells into it after it has received sufficient ionizing radiation to destroy the mature host cells which would otherwise reject the injected cells. (12 Dec 1998) |
| 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) |
