Study of cancer cells response row K562 to Low-Dose- Beta irradiation and determination of absorbed dose using Monte Carlo method
Introduction: Cancer is, in essence, a genetic disease and is the second leading cause of death globally. Fortunately, many common types of cancer are treatable if detected early and of course there are many medications and treatments available today. Among the new methods to treat cancer, radiotherapy seems to be hopeful in patients with malignancies. This work investigates th...
متن کاملPerformance of Sife - Eldeen dosimeter over broad absorbed dose and dose rate ranges of γ – radiation and at different temperatures
Background: Results are presented on some dosimetric characteristics of Sife – Eldeen dosimeter based on the radiation induced conductivity (RIC) of 3.5 M aqueous urea solutions. The studied characteristics were the response (RIC) of Sife – Eldeen dosimeter in broad ranges of absorbed dose, dose rates and at different irradiation temperature. Materials and Methods: Kent EIL5007 conductivity met...
متن کاملCPGAN #002 FTIR Quantification of Absorbed Radiation Dose in Polyethylene
Ultra -high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is the current material of choice for bearing surface applications in total joint arthroplasty. In an effort to enhance the wear properties of the material many companies have recently resorted to electron beam and gamma irradiation of the components prior to the machining. It is of considerable interest to accurately determine the dose absorbe...
متن کاملThe Importance of absorbed dose in medical applications
Radiation damage depends on energy absorption, and is approximately proportional to the absorbed energy density in the tissue. In external radiation consideration with a certain energy flux, the amount of absorbed dose in each point of the tissue depends on the type of radiation, the radiation energy, the depth of the place of receipt, and the main components of the absorber environment. The ab...
متن کاملAbsorbed dose to water reference dosimetry using solid phantoms in the context of absorbed-dose protocols.
For reasons of phantom material reproducibility, the absorbed dose protocols of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) (TG-51) and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) (TRS-398) have made the use of liquid water as a phantom material for reference dosimetry mandatory. In this work we provide a formal framework for the measurement of absorbed dose to water using ioniz...
