Autoradiograph
Definition
An image, photographic film, or structural digital record obtained through the autoradiography technique, which highlights the spatial distribution of radioactive substances or isotope-labeled molecules (tracers) previously introduced into a biological tissue, cell, or metallurgical material. The term also denotes the apparatus or technical detection assembly utilized in the laboratory to capture and visualize alpha, beta, or gamma radiation emissions originating directly from the analyzed sample.
