Radiofrequency Echographic Multi Spectrometry (REMS) is a non-ionizing technology for osteoporosis diagnosis and for fracture risk assessment. REMS processes the raw, unfiltered ultrasound signals acquired during an echographic scan of the axial sites, femur and spine. The analysis is performed in the frequency domain.
The roentgen equivalent man (rem) [1] [2] is a CGS unit of equivalent dose, effective dose, and committed dose, which are dose measures used to estimate potential health effects of low levels of ionizing radiation on the human body.
Recognized effects of higher acute radiation doses are described in more detail in the article on radiation poisoning.Although the International System of Units (SI) defines the sievert (Sv) as the unit of radiation dose equivalent, chronic radiation levels and standards are still often given in units of millirems (mrem), where 1 mrem equals 1/1,000 of a rem and 1 rem equals 0.01 Sv.
“A short but sweet 20-minute recovery nap can work wonders,” says Perkovic. “It’s the perfect way for Aries to keep that vibrant energy in check, ensuring they’re ready to tackle their ...
Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategies (REMS) is a program of the US Food and Drug Administration for the monitoring of medications with a high potential for serious adverse effects. REMS applies only to specific prescription drugs, but can apply to brand-name or generic drugs. [1] The REMS program was formalized in 2007.
“After a few days, you’ll notice an increase in energy and more mental clarity.” After a week: After just seven days without alcohol, your immune system starts bouncing back.
“You need time to unwind.” That means cutting out work, study, and even watching stressful movies, sports or the news two hours before bedtime to get yourself into a more relaxed state of mind.
The non-thermal converters, such as betavoltaic cells, extract energy directly from the emitted radiation, before it is degraded into heat; they are easier to miniaturize and do not need a thermal gradient to operate, so they can be used in small machines. Atomic batteries usually have an efficiency of 0.1–5%.
