Photoneutron Source for In-Hospital BNCT Treatment: feasibility study
Some recent studies in Italy have focused on the possibility of exploiting clinical high energy electron linear accelerators, normally used in photon radiotherapy, as photo-neutrons source for in-hospital neutron medical applications. In-Hospital photo-neutron radiotherapy extends the possibilities of Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) to external treatment of diffused tumors when other metho...
متن کاملThe feasibility of using microstrip gas detector as radon detector for earthquake prediction
In the last decade, several studies have concluded that elevated concentrations of radon gas in soil or groundwater could be the sign of an imminent earthquake. It is believed that in case of sudden movement of rocks before earthquake, radon is released from the depth of ground and reached the surface. In this way, by measuring Radon concentration change, earthquake prediction is possible. In t...
متن کاملDual radioisotopes simultaneous SPECT of 99mTc-tetrofosmin and 123I-BMIPP using a semiconductor detector.
Objective(s): The energy resolution of a cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) solid-state semiconductor detector is about 5%, and is superior to the resolution of the conventional Anger type detector which is 10%. Also, the window width of the high-energy part and of the low-energy part of a photo peak window can be changed separately. In this study, we used a semiconductor detector and examined the ef...
متن کاملCollimator-detector response compensation in molecular SPECT reconstruction using STIR framework
Introduction:It is well-recognized that collimator-detector response (CDR) is the main image blurring factor in SPECT. In this research, we compensated the images for CDR in molecular SPECT by using STIR reconstruction framework. Methods: To assess resolution recovery capability of the STIR, a phantom containing five point sources along with a micro Derenzo p...
