tissues as a result of chronic exposure or tissues that
1.local tissue damage have survived a previous irradiation months or years

Late effects of radiation, stochastic
whose incidence is dose
related and for which
there is no threshold dose,
are referred to as
The photoelectric effect
a relatively low-energy photon uses all its energy to
eject an inner-shell electron from the target atom,
What contributes most to leaving a vacancy in that shell. An electron from the
patient dose? shell beyond drops down to fill the vacancy and, in
doing so, emits a characteristic ray.This type of
interaction contributes most to patient dose, because
all the x-ray photon energy is being transferred to
tissue.
Which of the following The photoelectric effect
interactions between x-ray
photons and matter is
most responsible for
patient dose?
an inner-shell electron
The photoelectric effect is
an interaction between an a relatively low-energy incident photon uses all its
x-ray photon and energy to eject an inner-shell electron, leaving a
vacancy.
______ occurs when an x-ray Absorption
photon interacts with
matter and disappears, as
in the photoelectric effect.
