This paper proposes a novel way to realize augmented reality (AR) systems. Unlike previous AR systems, which use head-mounted or head-up displays, our approach employs a palmtop-sized video see-through device to present computer augmented view of the real world. This conguration, which w e call the magnifying glass approach, has several advantages over traditional head-up or head-mounted congur...

introduction: the aim of present study was to estimate effective dose from most common procedures performed in nuclear medicine departments of golestan province. methods: data of nuclear medicine procedures performed in 2 nuclear medicine departments in golestan province were collected during 4 years. effective dose, collective effective dose and effective dose per examination were calculated u...

abstract men-i is a rare genetic disorder classically characterized by a predisposition to tumors of the parathyroid glands, anterior pituitary gland, and pancreatic islet cells. we present a case of men-i syndrome diagnosed using predominantly nuclear medicine imaging followed by radionuclide therapy, thus emphasizing the role of nuclear imaging in diagnosing and treating men-i.

introduction: one of the major problems in the development of nuclear medicine images is the presence of noise. the noise level in nuclear medicine images is usually reduced by the analysis of imaging data in a fourier transform environment. the main drawback of this environment belongs to low signal to noise ratio in high frequencies because removing noise frequencies may remove data and times...

isotopic and nuclear techniques play an important role in food and agriculture, health and industry. in the agricultural sciences and food technology sectors, recent research has elucidated the new potential application of radiation for microbial decontamination, food preservation, improve the nutritional quality of  foods  and effectively utilise its potential as human food or animal feed. the...

introduction: radioactive materials deliver internal radiation dose to patients in nuclear medicine. manual internal radiation dose assessment is a complicated method. introduction of a simple dose calculation software is the main goal of the present study. methods: using the best current data in internal dose calculation (s-factors) recommended by icrp and by considering other technical metho...

annually, many people are irradiated for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. assessment of radiation dose and its related risks to patients are important issues in radiation protection dosimetry. the complex mathematical calculations of the absorbed and effective doses are now done with computers. the calculations are performed with the help of anthropomorphic computational models of human bod...

Bangladesh is one of the smaller states in Asia. But it has a long and rich history of nuclear medicine for over sixty years. The progress in science and technology is always challenging in a developing country. In 1958, work for the first Nuclear Medicine facility was commenced in Dhaka in a tin-shed known as ‘Radioisotope Centre’ and was officially inaugurated in 1962. Since the late 50s of t...
