resources of energy. The reducing high quality oil resources and increase of oil price contributed to production from heavy oil reservoirs in recent years. This paper investigates the heavy crude oil properties and evaluates the steam-assisted gravity drainage(SAGD) which has become the method of choice for oil sand producers and it is therefore critical to optimize this process. Analysis has been done to realize the influence of different parameters on SAGD. The effects of parameters such as horizontal

CELLULAR RESPONSE TO IONIZING RADIATION The efficacy of diagnostic imaging resembles a double-edged sword in the medical industry. A radiographer trained to image a patient correctly must use all knowledge to keep the radiation level at its lowest and safest level to produce the best quality image possible. However‚ the radiation level still has an effect on the patient that can go unseen by the naked eye. Ionizing radiation produced by x-ray‚ gamma rays‚ alpha & beta rays‚ can have an effect
