1023 The Periodic Table of Medicine: Helium

Travel Medicine Podcast

IN this episode, Dr's J and Santhosh once again peruse the periodic table for its influence on medicine, this time with a focus on Helium! Along the way, they discuss Victor Hugo, the 1870 siege of Paris, the electromagnetic spectrum, balloon fuel sources prior to helium, the invention of heliox, medical uses of gaseous helium, how helium changes your voice, stroke recovery, the supercooling effects of helium, mitochondrial uncoupling, helium shortages, mri per capita, and more! So sit back and relax as we have a gas discussing this light airy topic!
