. Hey guys from Radiologando, how are you? Welcome to another video here on the channel.
And I wanted to do following question for you. Do you know biological effects caused by ionizing radiation. Or rather what these effects are?
If you don't stay with me until the end, , you're going to learn one more. Welcome to the channel Radiologando. Your radiology channel.
And if you still don't are subscribed to the channel, you already subscribe and activate all notifications so you don't miss any videos. And of course leaving a like there to help the work. Remembering you can also follow us on our social networks so much to the arroba radiologando as well as the arroba because it goes beyond of a lot of content in the feed in the stories you can also participating in lives and of course Radiologa close by with me so go there and follow us so without further ado, let 's go for the video?
Well, when we teach the term radiation, many people can until they get scared and others can imagine soon some , stop cancer. In fact, the term radiation means propagation power. And basically, this radiation, it can be ionizing or non-ionizing, which in turn refers relation to capacity in relation to its interaction of radiation with , the matter is about pulling out, in this case, ionizing electrons.
Basically various types of radiation, be it ionizing or not ionizing. In medicine, the most used type of radiation, is in relation to diagnostic imaging exams is the of radiation of type X. can be applied as ultrasound and even radiofrequency waves.
However many times many people wonder, is it this radiation harmful? And that's exactly what I want for you explaining. Many people think just the radiation it is capable to cause some genetic alteration that also refers to related to cancer among other diseases.
However you can better understand it is not just this physical effect that can result from a genetic alteration in relation the individual. There are also other chemical effects biological that can lead the individual to develop a from various types of diseases including cancer. Only if you many people refer only to radiation, but it's not well so.
In addition to these factors, there is also the question of of genetic predisposition as well as the lifestyle that the individual takes. However, so that we can understand better type in relation to the effects caused by radiation we accurate to know your ratings. Initially there are several types in relation to this classification.
There is the the somatic effect, the hereditary effect, the immediate effect, late effects and basically all of these will be characteristics according to the behavior of the organism towards this interaction of radiation. Initially and so that you can understand better irradiated person is unable to basically transmit this effect to another individual, that is, if I performed one proceed, for example. And I was irradiated, I don't go presenting no risk to someone else playing or talking to her or simply being close to it, because I was not contaminated, I was just irradiated and this irradiation can cause a somatic effect that is an effect that occurs in the irradiated individual himself or even a genetic effect in relation to my ancestry or the offspring of the individual who was irradiated.
Usually this is type of effect, it's what happens there in relation to the effect of the hereditary in which it will be in relation to the offspring of the individual who is irradiated in relation to the donda region, whether he is male or female and basically it these effects, they can also be immediate or late. It is known that this reason it is inversely proportional. The does it mean to say?
That for these effects to happen, basically works as follows, the bigger the dose to be administered, the higher the dose of radiation to being deposited in relation to matter, the smaller will be time in relation to the appearance of these effects. The smaller this amount of the radiation, bigger will be the time in relation to if it appears some effect. This time, this period that we talk about is known as period or latency time, which is the period or time necessary for these alterations to appear through a pathway what exactly is going to define whether the effects are going to be late or if the effects are going to be immediate.
Bergoni tributor , they defended then that there is a specific level in relation to this radiosensitivity and they realized that basically it level of radiosensitivity of a cell or a it is directly proportional to its degree of reproduction and inversely proportional to its degree of this in practice This means that the greater an activity mitotics in relation to the cell division process radiosensitive this cell will be and other cells that because in turn, they do not divide as easily or as greater amount in relation to its smaller activity, will be in its radiosensitivity and in the human body there are organs that , the more radiosensitive and organs that are less radiosensitives. We can then compare how, by , for example, the region of the lens in relation to the region of the extremities, which because it is a totally threshold dose. different of one and the other.
And speaking of linear dose, there is also, basically , other types of effects that can exist, which are the stochastic effects, the deterministic effects. Basically, these effects are classified as follows. It is understood that this question in relation to is an accumulative factor, that is, basically learning the individual he won't develop any type of changes immediately after receiving a small dose of radiation structure and this effect basically goes if accumulating as if it were a stock, hence the word stochastic.
So the stochastic effect, in addition to being a late effect, it has or does not have a chance of happening there because is totally different from the deterministic effect than the , from X twelve there will be X effect and so on, the from other effects and so basically we they can better understand this law basically it should always be remembered and also remembering that for us professionals of radiological techniques we must always optimizing in relation to there the dose of action in our have procedures exactly so that we can decrease even more this probability in relation to the occurrence of these effects, whether on the clients or the patients we are going to serve or even in relation to all individuals involved in , regarding that practice. So, you knew this law of shame on board, did you know what she was talking about? Because well, if you have any doubts or questions or curiosity, leave it here in the comments that I want to know.
After all, many people still have some myths and truths there, about radiation and I want to help you understand better. So anything leaves here in the comments so that I can to answer you. Also remembering that you can like in the video.
And of course, if you want to follow us there in the Instagram, go there at the arroba radiologando and at the arroba that I I'm sure you'll like it, besides of course several different content every day. Well, how much thank you for your attention, for having watched the video until I meet you then in the next video, closest or who knows in the next post. Thank you very much and even the next one.
It cost.
