hey..

im doing an assessment task on medical physics that requires to do some research and a multimedia presentation on radioactivty. i was wondering if there would be anyone else who is doing medical physics as their option who could possibly help with the following questions????:

- describe the main parts of the device and the results of using this device
- explain the physics behind the operation of this device
-compare the results of the device with older technology assessing how this device has impacted on society particularly in the field of medicine
- identify future directions of medical and physics research with this device

if anyone could possibly help me with this, i would be truly grateful :D
also, if you have any suggestion about it, would you be able to email me about it on ferrarigal_4_lyf@hotmail.com ???

thanks
