developing an automated cytogenetic imaging system for detection of dicentric chromosomes in biological dosimetry
background: high-energy ionizing radiation is harmful and changes the genetic makeup of dna, which can lead to increased risk of cancer. thus, the exposure of radiation dose should be under control and limited. ionizing radiation might lead to some chromosome aberrations like dicentric. there is a strong relation between the frequency of dicentric chromosome in metaphase, and the received dose....
متن کاملP-60: Survival Assessment of Mouse In Vitro Embryos after Exposure to Cell Phone Radiation
Background Using cellular phone among adults, teenagers and children has rapidly increased all over the world. Also, the concern on the possible health hazards of Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) induced from cell phones on reproduction has been growing in many countries. The aim was to assess the morphological parameters, survival rate and development of mouse in-vitro embryos obtained by natural ...
متن کاملCalculation of gel dose after external radiation therapy using optical CT
In this study, the MAGIC- f polymer gel was used to determine the absorbed dose by external radiation therapy. The MAGIC- f gel was made under normal pressure and temperature conditions and irradiated with a Siemens 6MV linear accelerator at 10 × 10 cm2 and at a depth of 10 cm. While simulating the head of the accelerator unit by the Monte Carlo method with BEAMnrc code, the percentage depth do...
متن کاملUltra-Low Radiation Dose Renal CT Examinations
These efforts include the development of customized protocols that take into account the patient’s age, body mass and clinical indication. This allows for lower dose scan parameters and targeted scanning to cover only the region of interest and thereby limit oversampling. In addition, new iterative image reconstruction techniques can improve image quality on low dose, higher noise CT scans. As ...
متن کاملLow-dose temporal bone CT in infants and young children: effective dose and image quality.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The temporal bone is ideal for low-dose CT because of its intrinsic high contrast. The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate image quality and radiation doses of a new low-dose versus a standard high-dose pediatric temporal bone CT protocol and to review dosimetric data from the literature. MATERIALS AND METHODS Image quality and radiation doses were compare...
