Scientists in the UK have developed an advanced handheld imaging device that could prove a powerful tool when it comes to tackling cancer, offering 3D images of cancerous growths beneath the skin. The ...

High energy scans or the body looking for tumors or infections could be greatly improved by adopting perovskite detectors instead of the fragile or low-resolution options currently in use, a new study ...

Complex lead halides with the perovskite structure has been extensively studied in recent years in terms of radiation hardness. Many researchers found surprisingly high resistance of various ...

Industrial sterilization is primarily used for medical and healthcare products including a wide range of single-use medical products and devices. Historically, sterilization is mostly done using gamma ...

The IAEA is launching a new Coordinated Research Project (CRP) to advance our understanding of radiation effects on polymer materials commonly used in medical devices by comparing the effects of gamma ...

Even though high-quality X- and gamma rays with photon energy below mega-electron volt (MeV) are available from large-scale X-ray free electron lasers and synchrotron radiation facilities, it remains ...
