    This document discusses medical and industrial radiation sources. It outlines diagnostic radiation sources such as x-ray machines and fluoroscopes. Therapeutic radiation sources include cobalt-60, cesium-137, and linear accelerators. Research radiation sources involve radium, iodine, and technetium. Industrial radiation sources use cobalt, cesium, and iridium for applications in aerospace, agriculture, military, and quality control through techniques like material density evaluation, product sterilization, and sealed source industrial radiography.
