introduction: in patients with thyroid carcinoma, radiation absorbed doses of the thyroid and surrounding tissues is important to weigh risk and benefit considerations. in nuclear medicine, the accuracy of absorbed dose of internally distributed radionuclides is estimated by different methods such as mird and direct method using tld. the aim of this study is using tld and a phantom to determine...

Background: The number of interventional cardiology procedures performed has increased rapidly over the past years. While these procedures help physicians avoid using highly complicated invasive methods, it usually leads to high levels of exposure to ionizing radiation of both patients and cardiologist. The dose received by the cardiologist during interventional cardiology procedures is determi...

Introduction: The CT machine utilizes a bowtie filter to shape the X-ray beam and remove lower energy photons. Configuration of this bowtie filter is complex and its geometry is often not available in detail. It causes the CT dose index (CTDI) be with the different values in measurement versus Monte Carlo simulation studies and other analytical calculations. It is important esp...

The Thermoluminescence Personal Dosimetry Laboratory of the University of Costa Rica provides dose measurements for around 90% of occupational radiation workers in the country. The assessment of doses to workers routinely exposed to external sources of radiation constitutes an integral part of any radiation protection programme and helps national authorities to ensure acceptably safe and satisf...

BACKGROUND Image intensifiers have become popular due to the concept of minimally invasive surgeries leading to decreasing invasiveness, decreased operative time, and less morbidity. The drawback, however, is an increased risk of radiation exposure to surgeon, patient and theatre staff. These exposures have been of concern due to their potential ability to produce biological effects. The presen...

background: the present work aims to study the out-of-field photon calculation accuracy of a commercial treatment planning system (tps), oncentra, for three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3d-crt) and intensity modulated radiation therapy (imrt) treatment techniques from elekta synergy medical linear accelerator. materials and methods: accuracy of individual out-of-field dose components was...

Purpose: The goal of the this study is to measure absorbed dose oral tissues such as mucosa, salivary gland and bone after exposure ionizing radiation through panoramic radiograph cone beam CT. Subjects Methods: about 50 Egyptian patients were selected in who referred department medicine, periodontology, diagnosis & radiology, Faculties Dental Medicine, Al-Azhar university for or examination va...

<span>Using a camera to monitor an object or group of objects over time is the process detection. It can be used for variety things, including security and surveillance, video communication, traffic light detection (TLD), from compressed in public places. In recent times, tracking has become popular topic computer science particularly, data community, thanks usage deep learning (DL) artif...
