a 65 year old male with metastatic colorectal cancer (mcrc) in the liver was referred for selective internal radionuclide therapy (sirt) following a history of extensive systemic chemotherapy. 90y pet imaging was performed immediately after treatment and used to confirm lesion targeting and measure individual lesion absorbed doses. lesion dosimetry was highly predictive of eventual response in ...

Background: Lymphocyte-dicentric assay is the most generally accepted method for biological dosimetry of overexposed individuals. In this study, the frequency of unstable chromosome aberration in blood lymphocytes was used to estimate radiation dose received by individuals. Evaluation of dose using a calibration curve produced elsewhere may have a significant uncertainty therefore, experiments ...

background: 7-lif: mg,cu,p (gr-207a) is one kind of thermo-luminescent dosimeters (tld) which can be used in diagnostic radiology and radiotherapy applications. because of having suitable properties such as good sensitivity, small size and being tissue equivalent, thermo-luminescent dosimetry has been one of the most important techniques in medicine over many years. choosing a correct energy fo...

this study was designed to investigate the role of gabab receptor agents on imipramine-induced antinociception in ligated and non-ligated mice using hot-plate test. the data showed that different doses of morphine (3, 6, and 9 mg/kg) induced a dose-dependent antinociception in ligated and non-ligated mice. however, the opioid response was decreased in ligated animals. intracerebroventricular (i...

The adaptive response (AR) is a phenomenon by which cells exposure to sublethal doses of DNA-damaging agents (non-mutagenic dose of chemical or radiation), known as conditioning treatment (CT), leads to increased resistance to a subsequent exposure to a higher dose of the same or other agents, known as challenge treatment (CR). The adaptive response (AR) induced by radiation in human lymphocyte...

Introduction: LiF dosimeter has the most application in medicine. This study aimed to evaluate some dosimetric properties of a novel LiF: Mg, Ti. Materials and Methods: An ELEKTA Precise linear accelerator was used to calibrate dosimeters at 6 MV. In this survey, responses of dosimeters were evaluated up to 1000 cGy. Background effect was investigated in two different dosimeter states includin...
