A.The dosage of technetium-99m for a lung scan is 20. μCi /kg of body mass. How many millicuries of technetium-99m should be given to a 59 kg person? (Recall that 1 mCi = 1000 μCi.)
Express the radiation dose in millicuries to two significant figures.
B.Suppose a person absorbed 42 mrad of alpha radiation.What would be the equivalent dose in millirems?
Express the biological damage in millirems to two significant figures.

Technetium Dosage. Radioactive isotopes are often used for medical imaging. Technetium-99m (Tc-99m) is a particularly popular isotope since it has a short half-life and is easy to make. Also, Tc-99m can be chemically bonded to a number of different compounds and cell types for imaging different parts of the body. Tc-99m has a half-life of 6.02 hours. It decays into Tc-99 by emitting a gamma ray of energy 140 keV. For this problem, assume that Tc-99m is present in the...
