And already today this is 25,000 images.

But everyone else had to contribute one way or another.

MRI generates over a thousand.

And already today this is 25,000 images.

I am not a breast cancer survivor.

Radiation?

So here we were, a nuclear physicist, an internist, soon joined by Carrie Hruska, a biomedical engineer, and two radiologists, and we were trying to take on the entrenched world of mammography with a machine that was held together by duct tape.

Radiation sickness?

The explosion flattened buildings and swept bodies away as well as emitting intense heat and radiation.

There's chemo, radiation.

Okay. So first thing tomorrow,

Radiationproof?

Publicly, reported as human error.

Well now there's essentially a virtual colonoscopy.

Radiation therapy research platform

Radiation's falling.

With any sort of radiation therapy?

Not a rad.

The truth has become lost in all the rhetoric coming from the press, politicians, radiologists and medical imaging companies.

But in my view, the radiologists are heroes.

Our sun will begin to emit such extreme amounts of radiation

Radiological alarm.

Low level radiation.

And then the radiologist, together with the pathologist and sometimes the forensic scientist,

What about you? He's the priority.

Radioactive isotopes have a heat signature

Lightly irradiated bills.

At the time my patient posed this question to me, breast density was an obscure topic in the radiology literature, and very few women having mammograms, or the physicians ordering them, knew about this.

Radiation levels within norms.

So she took it.

Well, you need to read the details of your mammography report.

Sharon, have you been taking your antiradiation meds?

There's a shortage of radiologists qualified to read mammograms, and that's because mammograms are one of the most complex of all radiology studies to interpret, and because radiologists are sued more often over missed breast cancer than any other cause.

So I studied her mammogram, and I reviewed the radiology literature, and I was shocked to discover that, in her case, our chances of finding a tumor early on the mammogram were less than the toss of a coin.

They made her radioactive.

We manufacture them in house, ourselves. That keeps the costs down.

If the tumor is fast growing or invading nearby tissue, your doctor might recommend radiation or surgery followed by radiation.

Here's a test system we developed.

I xray people in treatment every day.

Well, here we have a little problem, the radiation doses at the crew station

Rays consisting of electrons that are emitted from Atoms of radioactive elements.

But neither radiation nor chemotherapeutic drugs target only cancer cells.

No, of course not.

Curiously the level of radiation

We've got a visible heat signature from the isotopes.
