Atomic magnetometers have found widespread applications in precise measurement of the Earth’s magnetic field due to their high sensitivity. In these measurements, various methods have been utilized to compensate the Earth’s magnetic field in an unshielded environment. In this paper, we have proposed a method based on finding the minimum resonance frequency (corresponding to minimum magnetic fie...

Objective: Using Megavoltage photons generated by medical linear accelerator is a common modality for the treatment of malignant. The crucial problem for using photon beams >8MV is the photoneutron yields that increase the risk of secondary cancer that treated with high-energy photon beams. The contaminated neutrons produced in different components of the accelerator head and rely on many param...

Introduction: In this study, dose distribution of the chest wall in post-mastectomy breast cancer patients was evaluated and compared in the tangential wedged beam (TWB) and field-in-field (FIF) plans. Materials and Methods: Thirty-six patients with left-sided breast cancer were enrolled in this study. The FIF and TWB plans were generated for each patient to compare dosimetric parameters of th...

Introduction: This study was conducted to evaluate and quantify the treatment planning performance of MLC-optimized field-in-field planning technique (FIF), also named forward IMRT, versus wedge-based three field (W3F) technique in terms of dosimetric and radiobiological parameters for esophageal carcinoma.   Material and Methods: Twenty patients with esophag...

Background: Field-in-field (FIF) technique for treatment of breast cancer has become a widely performed method over the recent years. However, there was no study in the application of FIF technique in patients with breast cancer undergoing mastectomy and lumpectomy. This study is an attempt to compare dosimetric outcomes after applying the FIF technique in these patients. Materials and Methods:...
