X - Ray Methods in Histochemistry by ARNE ENGSTROM

چکیده
T H E aim of histoand cytochemical studies is to identify and eventually to quantitate substances on a microscopic level. This necessitates isolating extremely small areas for analysis, preferably in the intact biological tissue. Physical methods have proven to be of value in this respect, in particular the radiant energy micro-absorption techniques (Fitzgerald & Engstrom, 1952). The field of histochemistry is rapidly developing. In this summary, X-ray methods that have found use in histochemistry and histophysiology will be briefly discussed. Critical reviews (Glick, Engstrom, & Malmstrom, 1951; Fitzgerald & Engstrom, 1952) have recently been published.

متن کاملQuantitative assessment and reduction of long-term autoradiographic background.
Quantitative autoradiography can measure distribution patterns in an animal exposed to radiolabeled compounds. A comparison of autoradiographs of rat brain containing low levels of 14C showed that a highly variable background signal had been produced. This resulted in several overexposed autoradiographs which could not be quantitatively compared. The background, believed to be produced by light...
متن کاملUnfolding X-ray spectrum in the diagnostic range using the Monte Carlo Code MCNP5
Introduction: Unfolding X-ray spectrum is a powerful tool for quality control of X-ray tubes. Generally, the acquisition of the X-ray spectrum in diagnostic radiology departments is complicated and difficult due to high photon flux. Measurement of x ray spectra using radiation detectors could not be performed accurately, because of the pulse pile up. Therefore, indirect methods...
متن کاملImpact of quality control on radiation doses received by patients undergoing abdomen X-ray examination in ten hospitals
ABSTRACT Background: The X-ray machines used for radiodiagnosis should meet certain quality assurance (QA) programmes . These are necessary to have good quality radiographs at reasonably low exposure to patients. Materials and Methods: Dose reduction methods in abdomen X-ray examination were carried out in 10 hospitals in Tehran. This paper presents the work, which was implemented on 200 ...
