Low-Dose, Ionizing Radiation and Age-Related Changes in Skeletal Microarchitecture
Osteoporosis can profoundly affect the aged as a consequence of progressive bone loss; high-dose ionizing radiation can cause similar changes, although less is known about lower doses (≤100 cGy). We hypothesized that exposure to relatively low doses of gamma radiation accelerates structural changes characteristic of skeletal aging. Mice (C57BL/6J-10 wk old, male) were irradiated (total body; 0-...
متن کاملHuman EPR Dosimetry at Low Accumulated Dose of Ionizing Radiation Human EPR Dosimetry at Low Accumulated Dose of Ionizing Radiation
A new method for tooth (enamel and dentine) and bone EPR dosimetry is proposed that enhances substantially the dosimetric sensitivity. The method is based on the nonstandard spectra registration mode (the second harmonic phase quadrature detection of absorption under rapid passage conditions). This method provides an apparent enhancement of the component ratio of radiation to a nonradiative bac...
متن کاملTreatment of Cancer and Inflammation With Low-Dose Ionizing Radiation
There is considerable evidence from experimental studies in animals, as well as from clinical reports, that low-dose radiation hormesis is effective for the treatment of cancer and ulcerative colitis. In this study, we present 3 case reports that support the clinical efficacy of low-dose radiation hormesis in patients with these diseases. First, a patient with prostate cancer who had undergone ...
متن کاملMilitary Global Health Engagement and Low-Dose Ionizing Radiation.
U.S. Military Global Health Engagement is evolving toward more specifically military strategic objectives, as well as better coordination with U.S. diplomacy and international development. The Department of Defense (DoD) issued policy guidance on global health engagement codifying these priorities for the first time in 2013, and is now developing the corresponding implementing instructions and ...
متن کاملThe biobehavioral and neuroimmune impact of low-dose ionizing radiation.
In the clinical setting, repeated exposures (10-30) to low-doses of ionizing radiation (≤200 cGy), as seen in radiotherapy for cancer, causes fatigue. Almost nothing is known, however, about the fatigue inducing effects of a single exposure to environmental low-dose ionizing radiation that might occur during high-altitude commercial air flight, a nuclear reactor accident or a solar particle eve...
