ct.scan examinations cause high patient absorbed dose from x-ray ionizing radiation. therefore it is necessary to obtain superficial dose profile in z-line. in this research 11 thermoluminecent dosimeter (tld), after calibration were located on z line perpendicular to slice thickness. ct.scan machines did x-ray exposures. the resultant dose profiles showed gussian shape apperience, which has se...

Background: Radiotherapy is an important technique of cancer treatment using ionizing radiation. The determination of total dose in reference conditions is an important contribution to uncertainty that could achieve 2%. The source of this uncertainty comes from cavity theory that relates the in-air cavity dose and the dose to water. These correction factors are determined from Monte Carlo calcu...

radiation degradation of chitosan is one of the most important methods to prepare antibacterial oligochitosans. in this study, the effect of solvent on the reduction of degradation dose and enhancement of the antibacterialactivity of chitosan against pectobacterium carotovorum (pc) has been considered.gamma radiation degradation was applied to chitosan as solid and aqueous solution at dose rang...

Undoped, high-quality diamond is, under almost all circumstances, one of the best insulators known. However, diamond covered with chemically bound hydrogen shows a pronounced conductivity when exposed to air. This conductivity arises from positive-charge carriers (holes) and is confined to a narrow near-surface region. Although several explanations have been proposed, none has received wide acc...

introduction: esophageal cancer is one of the most frequently occurring cancers in iran and having a  high  incidence  rate  among  other  countries.  radiotherapy  is  one  of  the  three  methods  (surgery,  radiotherapy and chemotherapy) for radical or palliative treatment of esophageal cancer. in this method  of treatment, the organs such as heart and spinal cord are regarded as organs at r...
