Kerma is made up of _____________ kerma and ______________ kerma.

The point of maximum dose is referred to as:

A treatment is planned using a single field at a distance of 100 cm and a 6 MV beam (Dmax=1.5 cm). In order to accommodate the target volume, the distance must be extended to 110 cm. The depth of the target is 3 cm. If the original PDD value at depth was 91.4%, what is the PDD value at a distance of 110?

If the dose to a target volume is 175 cGy (PDD = 88.5%), calculate the dose to an underlying structure located at a depth of 16 cm where the PDD is 36.4%.

A 24-year-old male named Alex presents to the clinic with fever, fatigue, headache, and a persistent cough. His symptoms started a week ago but have worsened in the last three days. He works at a local animal shelter, and several animals had recently been rescued from unsanitary conditions. Laboratory analysis of his sputum indicates the presence of a pathogen that grows in the soil. It produces multicellular, branching hyphae. Transmission of the disease occurs when spores of the organism are inhaled. What type of microorganism infected Alex? Would penicillin, a drug that inhibits peptidoglycan synthesis, be effective against this organism? Why or why not?
