UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009502 Neutrons Electrically neutral elementary particles found in all atomic nuclei except light hydrogen; the mass is equal to that of the proton and electron combined and they are unstable when isolated from the nucleus, undergoing beta decay. Slow, thermal, epithermal, and fast neutrons refer to the energy levels with which the neutrons are ejected from heavier nuclei during their decay. Neutron
D011879 Radiotherapy Dosage The total amount of radiation absorbed by tissues as a result of radiotherapy. Dosage, Radiotherapy,Dosages, Radiotherapy,Radiotherapy Dosages
D005214 Fast Neutrons Neutrons, the energy of which exceeds some arbitrary level, usually around one million electron volts. Fast Neutron,Neutron, Fast,Neutrons, Fast
D013819 Thermoluminescent Dosimetry The use of a device composed of thermoluminescent material for measuring exposure to IONIZING RADIATION. The thermoluminescent material emits light when heated. The amount of light emitted is proportional to the amount of ionizing radiation to which the material has been exposed. Dosimetries, Thermoluminescent,Dosimetry, Thermoluminescent,Thermoluminescent Dosimetries
