[ 1 ] - Determination of Uterus Absorbed Dose by Patients following Myocardial Perfusion Scan using TLD and Conjugate View Methods

Introduction: The determination of patient’s absorbed dose is the first step of radiation protection which depends on the quantification of organ activity in nuclear medicine. The aim of the present study was to determine the absorbed dose by patient’s uterus following myocardial perfusion scan with 99mTC-sestamibi using Theroluminescnce dosimetry (TLD) and conjugate-view metho...

[ 2 ] - Detection of Ultraweak Photon Emission (UPE) from Cells as a Tool for Pathological Studies

Objective: It is well-known that all living cells emit ultra-weak photon emission (UPE), which is due to byproducts of chemical reactions in cell metabolisms. It has been shown that Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) in the cells enhances the UPE intensity. The magnitude of such UPE is extremely weak (i.e. a few to 103 photons/ (sec.cm2)), and the detection of such ultra-weak signals is hardly possi...
