Facets:
value: by the radiation
type: OTHER
Source sentences:
text: Cancer risk is increased roughly in proportion to the amount of energy deposited in tissue ( radiation dose, usually quantified in units of gray [Gy] or milligray [mGy], where 1 Gy corresponds to 1 joule of energy per kilogram of tissue).
text: The effect of gamma and other ionizing radiation on living tissue is more closely related to the amount of energy deposited in tissue rather than the ionisation of air, and replacement radiometric units and quantities for radiation protection have been defined and developed from 1953 onwards.
text: The damaging effects of ionising radiation come from the energy deposited in tissue by the radiation.
text: Absorbed dose is the concentration of energy deposited in tissue as a result of an exposure to ionizing radiation.
