[ 1 ] - Design of Light Multi-layered Shields for Use in Diagnostic Radiology and Nuclear Medicine via MCNP5 Monte Carlo Code

Introduction Lead-based shields are the most widely used attenuators in X-ray and gamma ray fields. The heavy weight, toxicity and corrosion of lead have led researchers towards the development of non-lead shields. Materials and Methods The purpose of this study was to design multi-layered shields for protection against X-rays and gamma rays in diagnostic radiology and nuclear medicine. In this...

[ 2 ] - Design and manufacturing a CTDI pediatric phantom for CT dosimetry using TLD, ion chambers, and gel dosimetry

Introduction: Nowadays, the demand for CT-scan is increased, and this issue has become a critical subject in radiation protection, because of the risk of cancer especially for children. The quality assurance of CT images is a necessary factor that can effect on children dose. The CT dose index is an important dosimetry index in CT-Scan dosimetry. The purpose of this study is t...

[ 3 ] - Designed free-lead composite shields for diagnostic medicine radiation fields by using MCNPX code

 Introduction: Nowadays, applications of free-lead radiation shields are increased specially for weighting factor and toxicity of lead elements. Although touching the lead may be results in the nervousand blood system of body, it is not exactly proven yet. Protective measures are the fundamental parts of radiation protection. On the other hand, high weighting factor of lead sh...
