Golden Sheets set 5 (101-125)

A) CBC (cell count)

to protect the internal membrane & to keep the radiation from going to deep and also to protect the lens

Small cell is the most aggressive;

Surgery (then observation); if needed do post op radiation

absence of a body part

T2-3

Cerebrovascular Syndrome occurs after 10,000 cGy

AP/PA parallel opposed (typically includes primary tumor volume and adjacent mediastinum)

Ratio of the absorbed dose at a given depth in a phantom to the absorbed dose at the same point at a reference depth in phantom.

TPR= dose in tissue/dose in phantom

• only interaction with the capacity to produce a useful image on the film. 
• Incident photon penetrates deep into the atom and ejects an inner shell electron

Ovarian

• Extended abdomen
• accumulation of fluid in the abdominal (peritoneal) cavity

Small, white raised patches on the mucous membrane

• surgery (gross total resection) followed by observation
• radiation if needed post op 50-55 Gy

• pyriform sinuses (most common)
• post cricoid
• lower posterior pharyngeal walls below the base of the tongue

level of the C3-C6

dose in tissue/dose in phantom (d-max)

The ratio of the absorbed dose at a given depth in phantom to the absorbed dose at the same point in free space

TAR = dose in tissue/ dose in air

produced when an x-ray photon interacts with an outer shell orbital electron with sufficient energy to eject the photon from orbit and alter is own path

low white blood cells

The pituitary is the "thermostat" that controls all the other glands that secrete hormones

• used in electron mode.
• The target is retracted and a scattering foil that matches the electron energy called for is moved into place

shapes the x-ray beam in its cross sectional dimensions

Doing good, and calls on health care professionals to act in the best interest of patients, even when it might be inconvenient or sacrifices must be made

• curative NSCLS = 6000-7500cGy
• SCLC = 4500-6000cGy
• Boost = 4000-4500cGy
• organ tolerance=2000 cGy

45-50 Gy - large pelvic field

15-20 Gy boost fields
