Radiation was discovered just slightly more than a century ago, with a profound effect on both industry and medicine. Several notable scientists were key in bringing radiation to the forefront.
Historical review of scientists who played key roles in the discovery of radiation and its use in medicine are reviewed.
Wilhelm Roentgen, Henri Becquerel, and Marie and Pierre Curie's work is reviewed. The field of radiation safety was born to protect those handling radiation in addition to patients who received radiation for medical purposes.
Radiation use in medicine continues to evolve after notable discoveries by Nobel Prize-winning scientists.
辐射被发现的时间刚刚超过一个世纪，对工业和医学都产生了深远的影响。几位著名的科学家在将辐射推向前沿方面发挥了关键作用。
回顾了在发现辐射及其在医学中的应用方面发挥关键作用的科学家。
审查了威廉·伦琴、亨利·贝克勒尔以及玛丽和皮埃尔·居里的工作。除了因医疗目的接受辐射的患者外，辐射安全领域的诞生是为了保护那些处理辐射的人。
