Space-related radiation research could help reduce fractures in cancer survivors
It is well documented that living in the microgravity environment of space causes bone loss in astronauts, but until recently, little was known about the effects of space radiation on bones. Dr. Ted B...

Read moreCT scans: Too much of a good thing can be risky
"We found that while most patients accrue small cumulative cancer risks, 7 percent of the patients in our study had enough recurrent CT imaging to raise their estimated cancer risk by 1 percent o...
Studies and Analyses | Read moreCancer risk of low dose ionizing radiation: new insights from modern biology provoke more questions and challenges
Started in January 2004, the project carried out research to contribute to the improvement of the management of health risks attributable to low dose exposures, i.e. 100 mSv or less. New evide...
Medical Engineering | Read moreBorn from the Wind - Unique Multi-wavelength Portrait of Star Birth
The picture combines infrared, visible and X-ray light from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope, ESO's New Technology Telescope (NTT) and the European Space Agency's XMM-Newton orbiting X-ra...
Physics and Astronomy | Read moreExercise reduces damage after therapeutic irradiation to the brain
The researchers believe that these results are also applicable to children that have suffered damage due to radiotherapy of brain tumors.Children that receive radiation treatment for brain tum...
Life Sciences | Read moreCeramic, heal thyself
A new computer simulation has revealed a self-healing behavior in a common ceramic that may lead to development of radiation-resistant materials for nuclear power plants and waste storage. Res...
Materials Sciences | Read moreLSU professor looks for life in and under antarctic ice
Antarctica is home to the largest body of ice on Earth. Prior to approximately 10 years ago, no one thought that life could exist beneath the Antarctic ice sheets, which can be more than two miles thi...
Life Sciences | Read moreWhere Broken DNA is Repaired
That question may now be closer to an answer. By comparing computer models of damaged human DNA with microscopic images of human cells that reveal focal sites of radiation-induced damage, researchers ...
Life Sciences | Read moreNew study focuses on radiation-associated cancer risks
To address these concerns, Herman Suit and his colleagues Saveli Goldberg, Andrzej Niemeierko, Marek Ancukiewicz, Eric Hall, Michael Goitein, Winifed Wong and Harald Paganetti examined data on radiati...
Studies and Analyses | Read moreTea helps treat damaged skin in cancer patients
Researchers show that this might partly be due to the anti-inflammatory properties of tea. In a study published today in the open access journal BMC Medicine, researchers show that tea acts at the cel...
Health and Medicine | Read moreTowards predicting late-stage radiation toxicity
For example, in prostate cancer—a tumor in the prostate gland that lies between the bladder and the rectum—late radiation toxicity affects rectal, bladder, and sexual function in 5–10% of patients. A...
Health and Medicine | Read moreCancer stem cells linked to radiation resistance
The researchers also identified a method that appears to block the cells' ability to activate the repair switch following radiation treatment. This finding may lead to the development of therapie...
Life Sciences | Read moreTiming of radiation treatments for colon cancer may need adjusting
Scientists have unexpectedly discovered that mice with the gene defect that causes colon cancer in humans can differ from normal mice in how they respond to radiation treatments. The l...
Health and Medicine | Read moreResearchers discover that nanoparticle shows promise in reducing radiation side effects
Using transparent zebrafish embryos, researchers at Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia have shown that a microscopic nanoparticle can help fend off damage to normal tissue from radi...
Materials Sciences | Read moreNew sensor technology detects chemical, biological, nuclear and explosive materials
Applications for homeland security, emergency planning Engineers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory, using an emerging sensing technology, ha...
