Course: Radiologic Technology II (14105-II) > Section: Examining Radiobiology

Evaluation should include

- blood cells
- bone cells
- nerve tissue
- reproductive organs
- the lens of the eye
- the thyroid gland.

The evaluation should be based on the law of Bergonié and Tribondeau, which established that radiation sensitivity levels vary by tissue and organ type.

Process/Skill Questions:

- What is radiosensitivity?
- How are human tissue and organs affected by radiation?
- What is the law of Bergonié and Tribondeau? How does it relate to radiation treatment?
