Effects of radiation on biological tissue
Veterinary Surgery and RadiologyImmediate complications of Radiotherapy observed with in minutes or days after irradiation. For example, Epilation (loss of hair), desquamation of skin, skin erythema, chromosome aberration, haematological depression etc.
Application and mechanism of radiation therapy
Veterinary Surgery and RadiologyMechanism of action of radiation therapy is by Direct or Target theory and Indirect theory. In which, DNA molecule is the most important target of radiation in the cells.
Principles of radiation therapy and Isotopes

Functions of Specific and non-specific nuclei of thalamus
Veterinary PhysiologyFunctions of Specific and non-specific nuclei of thalamus Functions of Specific and non-specific nuclei of thalamus is described below separately. Functions of Non-specific nuclei Non-specific nuclei plays a dominant role in the control of cerebral excitability by antagonizing ascending reticular formation. Nonspecific thalamic nuclei are responsible for the production of α-rhythm in an awake, resting
