Demonstration of the Inverse Square Law - Video Lesson

Now we're gonna show you the inverse square law. And the reason that we're doing this demonstration in the OR is because we wanted to do it with the c arm. And the reason that we're doing it with the c arm is because there's no lead hanging to protect you, like there are in almost every, you know, in every R and F room there is for sure. And in the cath labs, in interventional rooms, they have different kinds of leads that can be put up so that you have a second, you know, way to be protected. Here in the OR, this baby is it. So this is why we really wanted to show it to you here. So what we're gonna do is As you can see the setup, we have it as a lateral lumbar. Here is the ion chamber. Here's the dosimeter. And we're gonna just make an exposure at two foot we're gonna move it back here to four foot, and then we're gonna move it back to eight foot. And we're
