[ 1 ] - RADIOACTIVE DISCHARGE FROM PATIENTS WITH THYROID CANCER UNDER 131I TREATMENT AND ITS SAFE DISPOSAL TO PUBLIC DRAINAGE

The treatment of thyroid cancer using an unsealed source of radioactive materials is usually associated with a large amount of 131I. A major problem for hospital admission of these patients is the waste disposal which requires protection of the public. 152 patients with thyroid cancer admitted to the nuclear medicine department of Said AI- Shohada Hospital for UI I treatment were studied. 1...

[ 3 ] - ارزیابی حجم سینوس اسفنویید به منظور تعیین هویت جنسی، با استفاده از تصاویر سی تی اسکن مولتی دتکتور

Background and Aims: Gender determination is an important step in identification. For gender determination, anthropometric evaluation is one of the main forensic evaluations. The aim of this study was the assessment of sphenoid sinus volume in order to determine sexual identity, using multi-slice CT images. Materials and Methods: For volumetric analysis, axial paranasal sinus CT scan with ...

[ 4 ] - Assessment of patients skin dose undergoing coronary angiography and Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA)

Background: Practice of interventional cardiology procedures such as Coronary angiography (CA) and percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) has largely increased in recent years and is now changing to a matter of routine in many hospitals. The purpose of this study was to measure skin and organ doses in patients undergoing CA and PTCA and to find a probable relation with c...

[ 5 ] - Evaluation of the relation between breast glandular absorbed dose and radiographic quality in mammography

Background: Breast is one of the main radiological sensitive organs, hence it is important to evaluate absorbed dose to this organ especially to the glandular parts. It is the aim of this study to measure mean glandular dose and image contrast in terms of different mammographic parameters. Materials and Methods: In this study two mammography machines located at Said-al Shohada (Giotto) ...

[ 6 ] - Staff exposure rate in Mahallat hot spring region

Background: High level radiation areas have been recognized on various parts of the earth. Mahallat hot spring region is one of these areas. Study of exposure in these areas can be helpful in investigating the effects of ionizing radiation. Internal and external exposure to the staff was studied. Materials and Methods: Used materials and instruments include: RSS-112 ionizing chamber fo...

[ 7 ] - Solar ultraviolet radiation on the ground level of Isfahan

Introduction: Ultraviolet (UV) radiation affects human organs such as skin, eyes and immune system, as well as animals and plants. The main natural source of UV radiation is the Sun. To study the effects of solar UV radiation there is a need to quantify variations of solar energy received on the earth surface at different intervals. Materials and Methods: To measure UV radiation a broadband fib...
