The effects of radiation on bone occur as a result of accidental exposure (e.g., radium dial workers) and of diagnostic (e.g., Thorotrast) and therapeutic procedures. Radiation therapy may affect bone growth, cause osseous necrosis, and induce neoplasia. Fortunately, these complications have decreased in frequency owing to advances in the methods of providing such therapy and to the use of both radiation and chemotherapy. The candidate will learn the mechanics of putting together an electronic poster presentation in lecture type format. This will be an official peer-reviewed publication. The publication will be a favorable addition to the candidate's CV. The candidate will be the first author, and I am the second author. A candidate is not limited to completing one project. He/she can do as many as they like! (There are always topics to teach about) The candidate, myself, King's College Hospital Department of Radiology and King's College all benefit from this publication.
