Measurement of absorbed dose in normoxic polymer gel and study of gold nanoparticles configuration effects
Radiotherapy includes all methods that can deliver a particular amount of ionizing radiation to malignant tissues, assuming that minimal damage hurts healthy tissues. We are looking for a valuable and reliable method to measure absorbed dose and the ability to measure the distribution of absorbed dose in three dimensions which nowadays is one of the three-dimensional dosimetry methods in using ...
متن کاملAssessment of absorbed dose uncertainty of prostate due to source relocating in brachytherapy by monte carlo method
Brachytherapy, is a method to treat prostate cancer in which a radiation source is placed inside or next to the cancer affected tissues. Purpose of this article is to determine the uncertainty level of received dose in prostate tissue due to the relocation of the placed radiation sources and inflation in prostate after positioning the radiation seeds. To simulate the model 6711 Amersham (activi...
متن کاملEffect of Beta Particles Spectrum on Absorbed Fraction in Internal Radiotherapy
Objective(s): The purpose of this research is to study the effect of beta spectrum on absorbed fraction ( ) and to find suitable analytical functions for beta spectrum absorbed fractions in spherical and ellipsoidal volumes with a uniform distribution for several radionuclides that are commonly used in nuclear medicine.Methods: In order to obtain the beta particle absorbed fraction, Monte Carlo...
متن کاملMeasurement of inhalation dose due to radon and its progeny in an oil refinery and its dwellings .
Background: Radon, an invisible, odorless, heaviest (nine times heavier than air) and radioactive gas is an aberration (the only gas in the long decay chain of heavy metal elements). It is ubiquitously present in dwellings and in the environment. Humans receive the greatest radiation dose in their homes. That's where they spend most time - typically 70%, more for small children. Recent worldwid...
متن کاملAbsorbed dose delivered by alpha particles calculated in cylindrical geometry.
The present work aims to develop a semi-analytical method to calculate the absorbed dose delivered by alpha particles in a cylindrical geometry. This method will be employed to reproduce the dose conversion coefficients or absorbed fraction of alpha particles in sensitive cells of the tracheobronchial tree obtained by NRC and ICRP, respectively. The difference caused by using water stopping pow...
