An investigation on the performance of dose calibrators in nuclear medicine centers in Iran
Background: To investigate the status of the nuclear medicine (NM) centers in Iran for the performance of dose calibrators, 18 out of 54 centers providing NM services in Iran were randomly selected and inspected in 1997. In the first phase of the study the selected centers were inspected for performing of quality control (QC) tests of dose calibrators. The linearity of the activity res...
متن کاملRadiation dose to the nuclear medicine nurses
Background: People who have been administrated radiopharmaceuticals could be a source of radiation to their relatives, medical nurses, and people who are in contact with them. The aim of this work was to estimate radiation dose received by nuclear medicine nurses. Materials and Methods: In this study, the dose rates at various distances of 5 – 100 cm from 70 patients, who were administered diag...
متن کاملAssessment of radiation dose in nuclear medicine hot lab
Background: Hot lab is a specially designed room in a nuclear medicine hospital where the radiopharmaceuticals are delivered, stored and prepared for dispensing. 99Mo/99mTc-generator is the major source in the hot lab used for various medical imaging. It is important to maintain a standard for hot lab procedures to optimize the patient care and minimize radiation exposure to all nuclear medicin...
متن کامل[Bibliographic consideration of proper management of radioactive waste on short-lived period nuclides that are used in nuclear medicine].
A rational clearance system for medical radioactive waste has not yet been established in Japan. As Europe and USA's ways, the establishment of DIS that medical radioactive waste what are kept in storage room for more than decided period each nuclide except from regulation of radiation's control. The purpose of this report is to clarify the problems with the establishment of DIS in Japan throug...
متن کاملPatient dose calculation software in nuclear medicine [Persian]
Introduction: Radioactive materials deliver internal radiation dose to patients in nuclear medicine. Manual internal radiation dose assessment is a complicated method. Introduction of a simple dose calculation software is the main goal of the present study. Methods: Using the best current data in internal dose calculation (S-Factors) recommended by ICRP and by cons...
