In vivo elemental analysis in occupational medicine.
Abstract
The application of in vivo measurement techniques, derived from nuclear and atomic physics, to problems encountered in occupational medicine is discussed. The main techniques, neutron activation and X-ray fluorescence, are described, and their use for in vivo measurements of cadmium and lead is explored in some detail. The extension of these and other, related, techniques to the possible measurement of other elements of importance in …
