Qualitative and quantitative analysis of pathological and non-pathological human bone using radioisotope X-ray fluorescence technique

Abstract

Pathological and non-pathological human elbow bone samples were collected from one male human patient and one female human patient who were undergoing treatment in our University Research Hospital. Pathological and non-pathological human elbow bone samples were analyzed by means of energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry by using standard additions method. Experimental results are presented and discussed in this work.
