    Episode 3: If This Goes Up... What Happens to That?

    If this goes up… what happens to that? This episode, we’re investigating the relationships that make radiologic physics unnecessarily suspicious. Frequency, wavelength, energy, voltage, current, resistance, and transformers are all getting questioned. No equations were harmed in the making of this episode. 🎵 Music & Sound CreditsMusic and sound effects used in this episode were sourced from royalty-free and/or Creative Commons libraries, including Pixabay, Mixkit, and Freesound.

    Episode 2: Mama… Where Do X-rays Come From?

    Mama… where do X-rays come from? 🥺 In this episode, we’re having the talk. The birds, the bees, the cathode, the anode… and what happens when electrons get hot, single, and extremely attracted to tungsten. We’re breaking down X-ray production, from thermionic emission and space charge to Bremsstrahlung and characteristic radiation, without making you memorize another physics paragraph. Permission slips signed? Good. Let’s talk about where baby X-ray photons come from. For more fun checkout my website: www.radiantlightlearning.org

    Episode 1: So… Why Are We Here?

    Episode 1: So… Why Are We Here? Welcome to Did You Collimate?, a podcast about radiology, imaging science, physics, and all the things you were told to memorize without anyone really explaining why. In this first episode, Lielie talks about why physics deserves better than endless formulas and up/down arrows, then dives into the first It’s Probably Scatter segment to explore why a digital image can look fantastic even when the exposure indicator is quietly having a crisis. Along the way: collimation, scatter, detector exposure, missing markers, and absolutely no solving for x. For more fun, check out my website: www.radiantlightlearning.org
