Because the proportion of cells killed depends on dose, the severity of the deterministic effect also depends on dose.

However, to ensure a clear distinction between the absorbed dose and its weighted analogues, it has been agreed that the unit of equivalent dose and of effective dose should have the special name sievert (Sv).

However, you have my word the dose was a normal one.

What's the dose?

A sublethal dose probably wouldn't show up anyway.

Source The Daily Dose.

In those situations, the collective dose is still a useful quantity, provided it is made clear that the collective dose is that committed by the relevant source or unit of practice.

The number of neural cells that are misconnected depends on dose.

Annual collective effective dose a

Don't reduce it. It makes me nervous.

As with these other reward triggers, after the dopamine burst wears off, the consumer feels a letdown irritable, anxious, and longing for the next fix.

For some purposes, the collective dose is a more satisfactory quantity, being little affected by the inclusion of large numbers of individually trivial doses.

More generally, decision theory, based on a fixed universe or a model of possible outcomes, ignores and minimizes the effect of events that are outside model .

Tissue failures are therefore dependent on both dose and dose rate.

Basis of commitment

Dosage has something to do with this.

And this is the dosage that the doctor's requesting.

We have to figure out the dosage in terms of milliliters.

The measure. Drink and pass.

The equivalent dose in each tissue or organ is multiplied by a tissue weighting factor, and the sum of these products over the whole body is called the effective dose.

Taxes generally have little redistributive effect, because most countries rely heavily on indirect taxes.

pre depends on

Modern economies rely not on monopolies, but on competition.

The unit of effective dose commitment is the sievert.

Annual effective doses to adults from natural sources

He received high dose radiation to the head.

Oh, she overdoes. That's the whole trouble.

Although it wasn't enough to kill him.

Kyoto depends on the tourist industry.

Being everything by yourself?

Our democracies rely on elections.

Then... hang it on the limb.

Nothing forces you to run like a battle.

She relies on habits

For most purposes, the Committee uses the average absorbed dose in a tissue or whole organism rather than the absorbed dose at a point.

Since both the radiation weighting factor and the tissue weighting factor are dimensionless quantities, the dimensions of the equivalent dose and the effective dose are the same as the dimensions of the absorbed dose, and the unit is the same, the joule per kilogram.

In therapy, too small a dose may completely eliminate the benefit of the treatment.

Now, all actions in fencing... are made only with the fingers, never with the wrist.

With this simplification, the world wide annual total collective effective dose from therapy is about 1.5 106 man Sv, about the same as that from diagnosis.

The Committee also uses the collective effective dose, which is the average dose to an exposed population or group multiplied by the number of people in the group.

Separating the budget s effects on the economy from those of the economy on the budget is tricky.

I'm going to leave you with a little bit more birdsong.

The probability, but not the severity, of the cancer increases with dose.

Collective dose can be a misleading basis on which to make judgements.

In a slightly larger quantity, of course, it induces madness.
