Abstract Title: The Function of Gamma Ray in Chemotherapy in Curing Brain Cancer Teacher/s: Mrs. Elsa R. Paje Subject/s: English School: Saint Nicholas Academy Date of Submission: February 13 2013

The Gamma ray is an electromagnetic radiation that has a short wave length. It is one of the most powerful electromagnetic spectrum that contains a high penetrating energy and high frequency. Gamma Ray can occurs everywhere especially to the outer space where a lot of electromagnetic spectrum are found. In the outer space this radiation commonly spotted by the scientist and using a machine they examine those electromagnetic spectrums. This study showed the special role of gamma ray in our environment. This study also shown, how does a kind of radiation saves a life of a person, it also shows how does gamma ray functions in curing severe diseases and its important role in surgeries and treating of disease. This means that gamma radiation is not just a kind of electromagnetic spectrum but it shown that gamma radiation can use in many ways and its have a lot of uses. Gamma radiation can be an enemy or an allied it depends on how it is iii

going to be use, like if it use an special weapon or if it is use to help poor peoples. Nothing is harmful in gamma radiation it always depend on the persons who make use of it. This study begins with a problem that the researcher needs to give answers in order to make the other chapters clear and organize. As a whole the research is all about brain cancers, and gamma ray. Its focus is on how gamma radiation help cured a severe disease like brain cancer.
