Estimation of the Radioactivity Produced in Patient Tissue during Carbon Ion Therapy
Nuclear interactions of the projectile carbon ion in biological soft tissue for cancer treatment purpose are studied. Elastic interaction of carbon ion with carbon, oxygen and nitrogen nuclei existing in soft tissue leads to beam divergence especially in Bragg peak region, where the carbon ion is slowing down. Monte Carlo simulation shows the amount of carbon ion beam divergence in soft tissue....
متن کاملthe effect of e-64 on the developmental competence of sheep cocs during in vitro maturation
in the present study, the effect of e-64 at different concentrations (0.5, 1, 5 and 10 µm) added to (1) the ivm medium on oocyte nuclear maturation and developmental competence of ovine oocytes, and (2) to the ivc medium on embryonic development of ovine embryos were investigated.
Estimation of radiation dose of emergency exposure during the hospitalized 131I therapy patient
Background: The aim of the study was to estimate the radiation dose during emergency exposure to patients treated with iodine-131 during the isolation period. Materials and Methods: The dose rate from a sample of 192 patients administrated by three different radioactivity of 131I (3.7, 5.55 and 7.4 GBq) was measured, at 1 meter after 1, 24 and 48 hours post dose administration, at three d...
متن کاملHadron Therapy in Iran: Patient Indication Estimation and Challenges Ahead
Introduction: Radiotherapy with heavy charged particles such as protons and carbon ions (hadron therapy) has been recognized as an advanced technique for the treatment of various cancers. For some indications such as pediatric and radio-resistant tumors, it is considered the preferred method. However, despite its remarkable benefits, development of hadron therapy centers in the...
