Introduction: Internal exposure to radon gas progeny can lead to serious biologic damages to the lung tissue. The aim of this study was to evaluate the absorbed dose by lung tissue due to the exposure from short-lived radioactive products of radon (222Rn) decay using Monte Carlo simulation. Material and Methods: A lung equivalent p...
Introduction: With the extensive application of radiation sources and radioactive materials in various fields, the study of attenuation and absorption of X-rays and gamma-rays in several materials has become an essential and interesting field of research. Glass materials are possible alternatives of concretes for radiation-shielding materials. Materials and Methods:...
A project aimed at the development of an accelerator facility devoted to Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) is ongoing at the National Atomic Energy Commission of Argentina [1]. In a first stage of development, the accelerator will be capable of delivering proton or deuteron beams of 30 mA at about 1.4 MeV which is suitable for neutron production through the 9Be(d,n) reaction. In this context...
In this work, calculations of leaked dose from vehicle inspection area, the absorbed dose by driver and operator, and the required concrete thickness for shielding the inspection area are presented using the Monte Carlo code MCNPX2.6. The X-ray source of the present vehicle inspection system is a LinatronMi6 accelerator, end of which has only been simulated in this study (the electron beam coll...
Introduction BNCT is an effective method to destroy brain tumoral cells while sparing the healthy tissues. The recommended flux for epithermal neutrons is 10 n/cms, which has the most effectiveness on deep-seated tumors. In this paper, it is indicated that using D-T neutron source and optimizing of Beam Shaping Assembly (BSA) leads to treating brain tumors in a reasonable time where all IAEA re...
Introduction Radiotherapy is regarded as the first treatment of choice for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Despite the advantages of radiotherapy, patients may suffer from a wide range of side-effects due to the presence of many sensitive normal tissues in these regions. If the absorbed dose exceeds the tolerance level in parotid glands and the spinal cord, myelopathy, Lhermitte's sign and xerostomia...
A new algorithm for energy-loss straggling in MCNP is demonstrated. An approximate but accurate energy-loss moment-preserving differential cross section is used in conjunction with single event Monte Carlo simulation through each condensed history step to show that highly accurate energy spectra, leakage currents, and dose profiles can be obtained. This new approach provides a viable and even p...
A great number of radioactive cesium were released into sea water after Fukushima Accident. We modified the Regional Oceanic Modelling System (ROMS) to reproduce the dispersion process of the cesium in oceans. The simulated water concentration was in good agreement with observation. In order to explore the nuclear impact of these contaminant in ocean, we established a food web model to calculat...
introduction in this study, we aimed to calculate dose enhancement factor (def) for gold (au) and iron (fe) nanoparticles (nps) in brachytherapy and teletherapy, using monte carlo (mc) method. materials and methods in this study, a new algorithm was introduced to calculate dose enhancement by aunps and fenps for iridium-192 (ir-192) brachytherapy and cobalt-60 (co-60) teletherapy sources, using...
Fluence to Local Skin Dose Conversion Coefficients (LSD-CC) are radiological protection quantities used for external radiation exposures which allow the conversion of particle fluences into local skin equivalent dose. The International Commission on Radiological Protection published LSD-CC electrons with an energy range from 10 keV MeV. However, literature does not address these all types, in p...
