متن کاملMathematical Calibration of a Whole-Body Counter
This paper describes the mathematical efficiency calibration of the whole-body counter at Forschungszentrum Jülich using Monte Carlo codes and mathematical anthropomorphic phantoms. As a prerequisite for the Monte Carlo simulations a precise model of the 4 high-purity germanium (HPGe) detectors had to be developed. Because the technical data provided by the manufacturer were not sufficient for ...

متن کاملCIMETIDINE CAN MODIFY THE EFFECTS OF WHOLE BODY \'Y-IRRADIATION ON LY MPHOHEM ATOPOIETIC SYSTEM
The hematopoietic syndrome is anticipated when a dose of radiation greater than 100 cGy is received. The resulting clinical situation is life-threatening because of opportunistic infections and gradual decline in immune competency due to irradiation. Because of evidence of a possible immunomodulatory role for cimetidine, an antagonist of histamine H2 receptors, we studied the effects of thi...
