Across
  1. 5. Damage to bowel, happens at 6-10 Gy whole body dose, death in 3-5 days
  2. 7. Random, probabilistic, non-deterministic, non-threshold, more in xray
  3. 9. Risk model that predicts a specific number of cancers will occur as a result of exposure
  4. 11. No symptoms, lose dose people heal here & symptoms don’t return, stage 2
  5. 15. Our principle, follows linear non-threshold line
  6. 18. Below this dose, no biologic effects are observed
  7. 19. Non-random, threshold, early effects
  8. 21. Most severe, confusion, 50+ Gy, damage to blood vessels & CNS, death
  9. 23. 13 weeks - term, fetus is no more sensitive than it would be on outside womb*
  10. 24. Symptoms return, mild symptoms and smaller doses may recover, can figure out dose based on symptoms… Hemo, GI, or Cerebro starts, stage 3*
Down
  1. 1. 0-9 days after conception, all or nothing abortion possible
  2. 2. The only non-random, deterministic late effect
  3. 3. 10 days – 12 weeks after conception
  4. 4. Risk model that predicts the number of cancers will increase as the natural incidence increases with advancing age
  5. 6. Dose dependent, universal signs and symptoms, stage 1
  6. 7. Most affected in gastrointestinal syndrome*
  7. 8. Whole-body doses of ionizing radiation from 1-10 Gy, affects the
  8. 10. Radiation exposure causes the number of RBC, WBC, & platelets in circulating blood to
  9. 12. types of cells that are the primary concern with early effects
  10. 13. 2-10 Gy whole body
  11. 14. Effects that appear in minutes, hours, days, or weeks, and require a substantial dose, severity is dose related
  12. 16. Latent period aka *
  13. 17. AKA “radiation sickness”
  14. 20. Death or recovery stage
  15. 22. Long-term results of radiation exposure, cataracts, leukemia, genetic mutations*
