Radiation Sensors
Dental Systems - RVG 6100 Digital Radiography System
Submitted by nestorb on Sun, 2007-05-13 23:37. Due to new technological advances with the optical plate and scintillator, all size sensors have increased "sensitivity," which allows a practitioner to decrease the radiation dose - up to 10% decrease for sizes 1 & 2 and 40% decrease for size 0 (depending on type and age of x-ray generator).
Genomic Test Could Help Detect Radioactivity Exposure From Terrorist Attacks
Submitted by nestorb on Wed, 2007-04-18 12:36. The new test scans thousands of genes from a blood sample to identify distinct genomic "signatures" reflecting varying radiation doses. Patients can then be handled according to whether they received no exposure to radiation, an intermediate level of exposure that may respond to medical therapies or an inevitably lethal dose.
New X-Ray Screen For Package And Baggage Screening
Submitted by nestorb on Fri, 2007-03-09 22:11. The high gain and improved resolution is achieved using a proprietary phosphor blend which results in 30% more light output than conventional rare earth based screens. Containing no cadmium, these screens comply with the RoHS Directive.
DNA test detects low-level uranium
Submitted by nestorb on Thu, 2007-03-01 21:50. DNA sensor can detect traces of uranium contamination nearly 3,000 times lower than the level considered hazardous to human health. The technology eventually might be contained in a fast and easily portable on-site testing system for uranium.

UV sensor detect radiation
Submitted by nestorb on Wed, 2006-11-15 21:26. A new ultraviolet sensor chip; Researchers said the UV sensor was more accurate than normal sensors. The device can give users immediate suggestions on how much sunblock to put on. The sensor is made of a material called GaN, which is twice as sensitive to ultraviolet radiation than silicon...
