| 11. | Late or delayed effects of radiation occur following a wide range of doses and dose rates.
|
| 12. | Prior to HDR, LDR ( Low Dose Rate )-braky therapy was commonly in use for prostate cancer.
|
| 13. | Electron beams use an on-off technology and provide a much higher dosing rate than gamma or x-rays.
|
| 14. | We expect this ( Pit Viper ) may reduce personnel dose rates by up to 75 percent.
|
| 15. | At this dose rate, a person exposed to the radiation would receive a lethal dose in 1 hour.
|
| 16. | The exact dose rate remains unknown as the technicians fled the place after their first measurement went off-scale.
|
| 17. | One reason for such a relatively low-dose rate is the extensive measures taken in the plant to monitor exposure.
|
| 18. | This allows the summation by dosimeters of all radiation exposure, without taking into consideration dose levels or dose rates.
|
| 19. | Restarting a Remodulin infusion within a few hours after an interruption can be done using the same dose rate.
|
| 20. | Due to the higher dose rate, less exposure time is needed and thereby any potential degradation to polymers is reduced.
