General Information
The Research Radiation Core (RRC) is a new core facility with the mission to provide research support on radiation usage in biomedical research field. The core currently houses five irradiators dedicated for research applications. They include three Cs-137 based irradiators, one conventional X-ray orthovoltage irradiator (X-rad-320, Precision X-ray, Inc.), and one image-guided X-ray irradiator (SmART+, Precision X-ray, Inc.). These irradiators can be used to irradiate cells, tissue specimens, and animals (including small rodents and as big as cats and rabbits) used in research projects. The goal of the core facility is to enhance the accuracy, repeatability, and safety on radiation usage in research.
