MIRD continuing education: Bystander and low dose-rate effects: are these relevant to radionuclide therapy?
Bystander and low-dose-rate effects influence the dose-response relationship in a manner not predicted by current dosimetric methodologies. Radiation-induced bystander effects refer to biologic responses in cells that are not traversed by an ionizing radiation track and, thus, not subject to direct energy deposition; that is, the responses occur in nonirradiated cells. Low-dose-rate hypersensit...
متن کاملLow-dose radiation: thresholds, bystander effects, and adaptive responses.
I onizing radiation fills the universe. Daily ionizing particles and rays collide with molecules in 1% of the 100 trillion cells that make up the average human. These collisions generate clusters of free radicals known as reactive oxygen species that randomly damage cellular constituents including DNA (1). Certain types of ionizing radiation are more effective at generating reactive oxygen spec...
متن کاملCommunity Health Worker Programs to Improve Healthcare Access and Equity: Are They Only Relevant to Low- and Middle-Income Countries?
Background Community Health Workers (CHWs) are proven to be highly effective in low- and middle-income countries with many examples of successful large-scale programs. There is growing interest in deploying CHW programs in high-income countries to address inequity in healthcare access and outcomes amongst population groups facing disadvantage. This study is the first that examines the scope and...
متن کاملContinuing Education on Radionuclide Imaging of Musculoskeletal Infection: A Review
There are numerous imaging tests for diagnosing musculoskeletal infection. Radiographs are routinely performed, because even when not diagnostic, they provide an anatomic overview of the region of interest that could influence subsequent procedure selection and interpretation. Magnetic resonance imaging is sensitive and provides superb anatomic detail. Bone scintigraphy accurately diagnoses ost...
متن کاملFrom continuing education to continuing professional education: the shift to lifelong learning in occupational therapy.
In occupational therapy the conceptual change from continuing education (CE) to continuing professional education (CPE) has been a gradual one. This change has paralleled the awakening of the field of ad ult continuing education to the unique needs for lifelong learning activities shared by individuals who are members of the various professions. The concept of CPE is now commonly applied to ong...
