Determination of organ doses in radioiodine therapy using medical internal radiation dosimetry (MIRD) method
Background: Radioiodine therapy has proven to be an effective method in the treatment of patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma after thyroidectomy. The scope of this study is to describe a method to obtain the dose of organs using medical internal radiation dosimetry (MIRD) method. At the end, the results of MIRD calculations were compared with thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD...

متن کاملcomparison of three methods of calculation, experimental and monte carlo simulation in investigation of organ doses (thyroid, sternum, cervical vertebra) in radioiodine therapy
introduction: radioiodine therapy is an effective method for treating thyroid cancer carcinoma, but it has some affects on normal tissues, hence dosimetry of vital organs are important to weigh the risks and benefits of this method. the aim of this study is to measure the absorbed doses of important organs by mcnp (monte carlo n particle) simulation and comparing the results of different method...
متن کاملMeasurement of organ dose in chest CT examination using Monte Carlo simulation
Background: Exposure conditions in CT examinations are quite different from conventional Xray. In CT examination higher dose is given to patient in comparison with the dose in other diagnostic examinations. In order to calculate organ effective dose in chest CT, Monte Carlo simulation has been used in this study. Materials and Methods: The Impact survey data were used to determine the ...
