17) Based on your understanding of radioactive isotopes and Alzheimer's disease, what might occur with the use of radioactive isotopes when diagnosing this brain disease?

Answer :

Answer:

It could cause more cellular damage, worsening the condition.

Explanation:

More recent research have suggested radioactive isotopes emit radioactive radiation doses, regardless of how relatively low the emissions may be, have the ability to trigger some molecular changes that are linked to cognitive dysfunction. Hence, the mounting evidence that suggests that exposure to ionizing radiation from radioactive isotopes might ultimately lead to the development of Alzheimer's disease. Thus, using this could worsen the condition of Alzheimer's and cause more damage to the brain.

Answer:

It  may results in emission of ionizing radiation in the brain( if in high doses) damaging the brain  cells aggravating the health condition of the subject.

Generally, exposure of  the brain to  high  dose of ionizing radiations   from radioactive isotopes  during radiation therapy (RT)  for Alzheimer diseases  leads  to Neuro -degeneration resulting in further causing   dementia  and destruction of the  microscopic tissues of the brain  This aggravated  Alzheimer diseases. However, relatively low exposure to radiation had been  also suggested to cure this same neurological condition by promoting  regeneration of  the Gila cells. The latter cells insulate and protect the neurons from beta Amyloid imbalances and fluctuation

Therefore, medical diagnosis  with radioactive isotopes may cause brain damage from radioactive emission, if apply in high doses. The high dosage  can damage to  the brain cells and aggravating the health condition of the subject.
