  • Gerty T. Cori
چکیده

1. The time interval between radiation and the occurrence of epilation is shorter in mice injected with trypan blue than in normal animals. 2. An x-ray unit defined as that causing total spontaneous epilation on the skin of the mouse is suggested. It corresponds to four to five human erythema doses.

Megavoltage X-ray Dose Enhancement with Gold Nanoparticles in Tumor Bearing Mice

One of the applications of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) in medicine is radiation dose-enhancing effect. Although there are many simulations, in vitro and in vivo evidence that GNPs can enhance significantly the radiation dose effect of orthovoltage beams. These beams compared with megavoltage (MV) beams, have limited applications in radiotherapy. In order to evaluate GNPs radiosensitization perfor...
