2ND INT'L SYMP ON BIOPHYSICAL ASPECTS OF AUGER PROCESSES

通过电子俘获或衰变的放射性核素的极端毒性 过去，内部转换一直是人们非常感兴趣的话题 好几年了。这些放射性核素，通常被称为俄歇- 排放物，广泛用于医药，在环境中被发现为 井。这些放射性核素的辐射作用机制，当 被整合到组织中，对基础科学也具有重要意义 作为诊断核医学、放射肿瘤学和辐射 大体上是保护。过去几年取得的进展是 足够重要，足以证明有必要举办国际研讨会 提出并批判性地评估最近的实验和理论 数据，并为今后在这一领域的工作设定了方向。这次研讨会将 还提供了一个交流技术和思想的论坛，这些技术和想法 对于未来的发展来说是必要的。它还将引入和鼓励 青年科学家在这个领域追求事业，其中的重要性 正在被越来越多的人所认识。会议记录的公布由 美国医学物理学家协会将作为一本专著 促进科学信息的传播，并将作为 无价的参考资料来源。

The extreme toxicity of radionuclides which decay by electron capture or internal conversion has been a subject of much interest for the past several years. These radionuclides, commonly referred to as Auger- emitters, are widely used in medicine and are found in the environment as well. The mechanism of radiation action of these radionuclides, when incorporated into tissue, is of great significance to basic science as well as diagnostic nuclear medicine, radiation oncology, and radiation protection in general. The advances made during the past few years are sufficiently important to warrant holding an international symposium to present and critically evaluate the recent experimental and theoretical data and set a course for future work in this field. This symposium will also provide a forum for the exchanging of techniques and ideas that are necessary for future development. It will also introduce and encourage young scientists to pursue careers in this field, the importance of which is being increasingly recognized. The publication of the proceedings by the American Association of Physicists in Medicine as a monograph will facilitate dissemination of the scientific information and will serve as an invaluable reference source.
