introduction the exposure of human beings to ionizing radiation from natural sources is a continuing and inescapable feature of life on earth. for most individuals, this exposure exceeds that from all man-made sources combined. materials and methods in this study, the annual effective dose in high level environmental background radiation areas (hlebras) of northern city of ramsar in iran was de...
PURPOSE High atomic number (Z) materials have been considered as a method for enhancing radiation dose in tumors. The dose enhancement due to interactions of kilovoltage x-rays with high-Z materials (i.e., gold or iodine) has been well demonstrated through computational works. This study is to experimentally quantify the effect using gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and iodine solutions, respectively...
– gafchromic xrct radiochromic film is a self developing high sensitivity radiochromic filmproduct which can be used for assessment of delivered radiation doses which could match applications suchas computed tomography (ct) dosimetry. the dose response of gafchromic xrct radiochromic film hasbeen measured with reflectance spectrophotometry and desktop scanners. the film automatically changescol...
introduction iron ore is one of the most important natural raw materials that is widely used for manufacturing iron and steel. this type of ore contains various amounts of radionuclides; thus, exposing workers handling their extraction, transportation, and processing to radiation. materials and methods in this study, 12 ore samples (each mass weighing about 2 kg) were collected from the iron or...
angiocardiography is an x-ray examination of the blood vessels or chambers of the heart. cardiologists and staff members applying this procedure are exposed to high levels of scattered radiation. in our previous study the incidence of unstable chromosomal aberrations and cytokinesis-blocked micronuclei were found to be significantly higher in exposed individuals than the age and sex matched con...
conclusion attending radiologists could diagnose acute appendicitis accurately on ne-ldct. performance of senior residents on ne-ldct is better than junior residents and comparable to attending radiologists. results diagnostic performances for acute appendicitis were not statistically different for attending radiologists at both examinations. better performance was noted on the ce-sdct with a b...
background the present data show a global increase in the rate of cardiovascular disease. cardiac ct angiography has developed as a fast and non-invasive cardiac imaging modality following the introduction of multi-slice computed tomogaraphy. conclusions the total mean radiation dose to the thyroid and gonads was 0.36 msv, and 96.5 μsv, respectively for the subjects. these values were high for ...
background: sentinel node biopsy (slnb) is the standard of care for breast cancer treatment and it is getting wide acceptance in iran. the radiation safety of the procedure has been investigated under controlled conditions, but the standard dose of radiotracer and techniques are not always observed in the community setting. the aim of this study was to assess the magnitude of the absorbed doses...
background: people who have been administrated radiopharmaceuticals could be a source of radiation to their relatives, medical nurses, and people who are in contact with them. the aim of this work was to estimate radiation dose received by nuclear medicine nurses. materials and methods: in this study, the dose rates at various distances of 5 – 100 cm from 70 patients, who were administered diag...
Introduction: Irradiation of loaded tumor with high-Z nanoparticles with low energy photon of 192Ir source during brachytherapy increases absorbed dose of tumor due to increase in possibility of photoelectric phenomena. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate dose enhancement due to nanoparticles (NPs) with different atomic numbers and concentrations as well as effect of NPs distribution (un...
