I have devoted much time and energy to helping medical physics in developing countries. – John Cameron
The growth of technology is such that it is not possible today for a nuclear physicist to switch into medical physics without training. The field is now much more technical. More training is needed to do the job. – John Cameron
Most medical physicists work in the physics of radiation oncology making sure that the desired dose is given to the cancer and the dose to normal tissues are minimized. – John Cameron
I am now almost certain that we need more radiation for better health. – John Cameron
It is astonishing how much more anxious people are to lengthen life than to improve it; and as misers often lose large sums of money in attempting to make more, so do hypochondriacs squander large sums of time in search of nostrums by which they vainly hope they may get more time to squander. – Charles Caleb Colton (1780–1832), Lacon: or, Many Things in Few Words; Add
