Comme son nom l’indique, l’incidence axiale est telle que le faisceau de rayons X est perpendiculaire au plan OM ou orbito-méatal [...] Le patient doit mettre la tête en hyperextension (penchée au maximum en arrière), de façon que le faisceau de RX [rayon X] pénètre sous le menton et ressorte par le sommet du crâne. L’incidence axiale ou de Hirtz permet une bonne visualisation de la base du crâne mais aussi des sinus sphénoïdaux et ethmoïdaux, de l’atlas (première vertèbre cervicale). 4, record 4, French, - projection%20axiale

CR-39 plastic nuclear track detectors (PNTDs) are made of polymers that are sensitive to charged particles of linear energy transfer (LET) greater than or equal to 5 keV/ micrometer. CR-39 PNTDs are usually made up of thin (approximately 0.6 mm) sheets which are assembled in multi-layer stacks exposed in three mutually-orthogonal orientations. Charged particles that pass through the CR-39 PNTD with enough LET break the molecular bonds of the polymer and form a pathway known as the "latent damage trail." As the amount of radiation the CR-39 PNTD is exposed to increases, so does the number of latent damage trails. 1, record 6, English, - CR%2D39%20plastic%20nuclear%20track%20detector

Les détecteurs solides de traces nucléaires. Principe : L'exposition d’un diélectrique(dans notre cas le polycarbonate d’allyl diglycol CR-39 à des particules chargées dans un environnement radiatif conduit à une dégradation microscopique axiale du matériau le long de la trajectoire des projectiles. Ces dégâts sont alors appelés traces latentes. Celles-ci pour être observables doivent être agrandies en vue de leur exploitation sous un microscope optique. Pour cela, on réalise une attaque chimique par une solution basique concentrée et chaude : le développement. L'exploitation optimale de l'information contenue dans ces traces révélées consiste à remonter à l'énergie du projectile qui a créé la trace, et éventuellement à la nature du noyau émetteur et à son lieu d’émission. 1, record 6, French, - d%C3%A9tecteur%20solide%20de%20traces%20nucl%C3%A9aires

This is called the sunrise view because the patella appears to be rising over the horizon. This view is taken with the knee flexed. The radiograph is taken with the x-ray beam tangential to the patella parallel to the long axis of the lower extremity. 1, record 7, English, - sunrise%20view
