background: because of the adverse effects of ionizing radiation on fetuses, prior to radiotherapy of pregnant patients, fetal dose should be estimated. fetal dose has been studied by several authors in different depths in phantoms with various abdomen thicknesses (at). in this study, the effect of maternal at and depth in fetal dosimetry was investigated, using peripheral dose (pd) distributio...
Fetal dosimetry studies require the development of accurate numerical 3D models of the pregnant woman and the fetus. This paper proposes a 3D articulated fetal growth model covering the main phases of pregnancy and a pregnant woman model combining the utero-fetal structures and a deformable non-pregnant woman body envelope. The structures of interest were automatically or semi-automatically (de...
Human exposure modelling is a complex topic, because in a realistic exposure scenario, several parameters (e.g., the source, the orientation of incident fields, the morphology of subjects) vary and influence the dose. Deterministic dosimetry, so far used to analyze human exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMF), is highly time consuming if the previously-mentioned variations are considered. Sto...
PURPOSE To prospectively investigate the fetal dosimetry knowledge of health care professionals involved in the management of pulmonary embolism. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred sixty-one health care professionals consented to participate in this study, which had ethical board approval. The individuals surveyed were from 14 hospitals (seven university and seven community hospitals) in the U...
Anatomical models of pregnant women can be used in several applications such as numerical dosimetry to assess the potential effects of electromagnetic fields on biological tissues, or medical simulations for delivery planning. Recent advances in medical imaging have enabled the generation of realistic and detailed models of human beings. This paper describes FEMONUM, a complete methodological f...
Recently, there has been increasing concern regarding the safety of exposure to RF electromagnetic fields in pregnant females and their fetuses. In this study, we acquired fetal magnetic resonance imaging at 20 26 and 29 weeks from a healthy volunteer of pregnancy and developed the pregnant female models at those weeks of pregnancy by combining the fetal models constructed on the basis of the f...
In our study, we aimed to measure the dose exposed by fetus during three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) and intensity-modulated (IMRT) treatment techniques in pregnant patients who had undergo due breast cancer with thermoluminescence dosimetry (TLD) compare these measurements planning system (TPS). 2.5 mm- thick computed tomography (CT) images of Alderson Rando phantom device were...
The ultimate check of the actual dose delivered to a patient in radiotherapy can only be achieved by using in vivo dosimetry. This work reports a pilot study to test the applicability of a thermoluminescent dosimetric system for performing in vivo entrance dose measurements in external photon beam radiotherapy. The measurements demonstrated the value of thermoluminescent dosimetry as a treatmen...
This study aimed to examine the relationship between fetal dose and the dose-length product, and to evaluate the impact of the number of rotations on the fetal doses and maternal effective doses using a 320-row multidetector computed tomography unit in a wide-volume mode. The radiation doses for the pregnant woman and the fetus were estimated using ImPACT CT Patient Dosimetry Calculator softwar...
OBJECTIVE: To give a comprehensive overview of fetal doses reported in the literature when imaging the pregnant woman with suspected pulmonary embolism (PE). METHODS: A comprehensive literature search in the PubMed, MEDLINE and EMBASE databases yielded a total of 1,687 papers that were included in the analysis and have been analysed with regard to fetal dose in suspected PE radiological imagin...
