Estimation of Photon Specific Absorbed Fractions in Digimouse Voxel Phantom using Monte Carlo Simulation Code FLUKA

Background: Most preclinical studies are carried out on mice. For internal dose assessment of a mouse, specific absorbed fraction (SAF) values play an important role. In most studies, SAF values are estimated using older standard human organ compositions and values for limited source target pairs.Objective: SAF values for monoenergetic photons of energies 15, 50, 100, 500, 1000 and 4000 keV...

Evaluation of Electron Specific Absorbed Fractions in Organs of Digimouse Voxel Phantom Using Monte Carlo Simulation Code FLUKA

Background: For preclinical evaluations of radiopharmaceuticals, most studies are carried out on mice. Values of electron specific absorbed fractions (SAF) have had vital role in the assessment of absorbed dose. In past studies, electron specific absorbed fractions were given for limited source target pairs using older reports of human organ compositions.Objective: Electron specific absorbed fr...

NURSING CODES OF ETHICS EDUCATION BASED ON LECTURE ON MORAL PERFORMANCE OF NURSING STUDENTS: A QUASI-EXPERIMENTAL STUDY

Background & Aims: Nursing students as future nurses, are the largest provider of health services and will have a critical role in health care system. Therefore, with regard to the professionchr('39')s importance, Nurses along with clinical competencies, should have ethical competencies to provide appropriate and professional care. Therefore, the present study was conducted to determine the eff...

The Effect of Using “Applied In-Service Education Model” on Quality of Nursing Care in Surgery Unit

Introduction. One of the important duties of nursing managers is staff development for improving the quality of nursing care. If staff development is designed and implemented based on proper principles and nurses’ needs, it can lead to the improvement of nursing care. In this study, we have tried to present an applied model for nurses’ in-service education and determine its effect on the qualit...
