Radiation dose rates were evaluated in three areas neighboring a restricted area within a 20- to 50-km radius of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant in August-September 2012 and projected to 2022 and 2062. Study participants wore personal dosimeters measuring external dose equivalents, almost entirely from deposited radionuclides (groundshine). External dose rate equivalents owing to the ...
Introduction Natural and artificial radionuclides are the main sources of human radiation exposure. These radionuclides, which are present in the environment, can enter the food chain. Rice is one of the most important food components in Iran. Radionuclides by transferring from soil to rice and entering the human body can affect human health. Materials and Methods Fourteen samples of different ...
Computed tomography (CT) is a prominent procedure in the US with larger radiation doses than traditional radiology. CT is a powerful tool in the diagnosis of a wide variety of conditions and its use has grown quickly because of its power. CT contributes a significant portion of annual per capita dose in the US. The risk of this additional dose is poorly understood. The risks of low doses of rad...
Radiation protection in humans: extending the concept of as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA) from dose to biological damage Ionizing radiation has proven to be a double-edged sword since its discovery by Dr Roentgen in 1895. Radiation is a potent mutagen and carcinogen; however, it is also used in the diagnosis and treatment of human diseases. Background radiation consists of cosmic radiati...
We carried out a prospective study over a period of 12 months to measure the exposure to radiation of the hands of a dedicated foot and ankle surgeon. A thermoluminescent dosimeter ring (TLD) was used to measure the cumulative dose of radiation. Fluoroscopy was used in operations on the foot and ankle. The total screening time was 3028 s, with a mean time per procedure of 37.4 s (0.6 to 197). T...
to assess the environmental radioactivity levels and hence to determine the population exposure in kutubdia island, bangladesh the sediment samples were analyzed by using gamma ray spectrometry. in those sediment samples the average activity concentration of natural radionuclides 238u, 232th and 40k were found 15.39±1.67, 38.35±0.76 and 475.51±21.15 bq/kg respectively. the activity concentratio...
BACKGROUND In Lithuania the average annual effective dose due to cosmic radiation at the sea level is 0.38 mSv. The dose rate caused by cosmic radiation increases with altitude due to the decrease in attenuation of cosmic radiation by atmosphere. Dose rates at altitudes of commercial flights are tens times higher than those at the sea level. For this reason people who frequently fly receive hig...
Background: Radon as a potential risk of radiation exposure is a natural radioactive element that can emit from rocks and soils. Due to solubility in water, it can be inhaled or consumed by the public. The purpose of this study was carrying out measurement and evaluation of radon concentration in samples of drinking water which are collected from water supplies of Borujerd. Materials and Method...
Background: Turkey, especially the northern part of it, was one of the countries which were contaminated by the Chernobyl accident. Rize is a city located in the Northeastern district of Turkey which was heavily influenced by the Chernobyl nuclear accident. Materials and Methods: In this study, the activity concentrations of natural (226Ra, 232Th, 40K) and artificial (137Cs) were measurem...
After the release of the Report of the United Nations Scientific Committee of the Effects of Atomic Radiation in 2000 (UNSCEAR2000), it became commonly accepted that the world population-weighted effective dose due to cosmic-ray exposure is 0.38 mSv, with a range from 0.3 to 2 mSv. However, these values were derived from approximate projections of altitude and geographic dependences of the cosm...
