Barbara Askins

 * ... that American chemist Barbara Askins (pictured) invented an imaging method that dramatically decreased X-ray doses for routine medical tests?
 * Symbol question.svg New enough (June 26), long enough (2,424 characters), neutral, well cited and compliant with BLP concerns. "She began her career as a teacher" from the first section is taken directly from source 2; but that's the only problematic phrasing noticed. Hook length is fine (145 characters max), content is great, cited in article, and taken in good faith to be cited in offline book source; also definitely neutral. QPQ not done and not needed as far as I can tell (only three DYKs to your name thus far, correct?) and image is fantastic and PD from NASA. Almost good to go; just rephrase the line about teaching and all will be well. Bob Amnertiopsis ∴ChatMe! 14:04, 27 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your review and suggestion, Bobamnertiopsis. I have updated the wording and tweaked a few other minor details for syntax. Please let me know if there's anything else you think I should do to prepare it for DYK. And yes, this is just my fourth DYK, but I will definitely plan to start reviewing now that I have a better grasp of the full process :) Thanks again. Girona7 (talk) 22:15, 27 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol voting keep.svg Good to go and I strongly recommend this be the lead hook so this super fun picture can be used. Seriously, what a fantastic jpg. Bob Amnertiopsis ∴ChatMe! 22:19, 27 June 2014 (UTC)
