25
effect of ionizing radiation depends on...
field size, rate of cell proliferation, tissue oxygenation
26
effect of ionizing radiation: radiation Rx= intense to small field; whole body= lower level can be fatal
field size
27
effect of ionizing radiation: high: bone marrow, lymphoid, GI and respiratory epithelius, gonads, epidermis; low: muscle/bone
rate of cell prolferation
28
effect of ionizing radiation: high O2 more vulnerable; ractive oxygen species enhance damage
tissue oxygenation
