Investigating the effect of voltage fluctuations on the beam quality of X-rays in the range energy of diagnostic radiology
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of voltage ripple produced by X-ray machines on the quality of X-ray rays. For this purpose, the energy spectrum from the X-ray tube manufacturer should be simulated in the range of diagnostic radiography and verified by experimental results. The statistical analysis of the results showed that there is no significant difference between sim...
متن کاملAn in-vivo study on the energy dependence of X-ray biological effectiveness
Background: The International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) has attributed the same relative risk for X and gamma radiations of all energies. Several studies have proven that the biological effect of low energy photon is more than that of higher ones. The assessment of risks is important due to the wide use of low energy X-rays for mammography screening and other diagnostic appli...
متن کاملA COMPARISON BETWEEN THERMAL AND X RADIOGRAPHY FOR STUDYING THE INTERNAL STRUCTURE OF BIOLOGICAL
ABSTRACT Background: With respect to the difference in the interaction of thermal neutron and X rays with matter, using two radiography systems of thermal neutron and X rays will yield highly valuable information for studying the inner structure of biologic samples. Methods: The high sensitivity of thermal neutron to hydrogen, in particular, has led to recognizing this system as a useful tool ...
متن کاملAn Overview of Technological Developments in Medical Applications of X-Rays and Radioactivity
The years 1895 to 1898 were momentous for their impact on health and human well beings. First, Wilhelm Roentgen noted a glowing fluorescent screen, caused by invisible rays. This event subsequently led to the discovery of X-rays in 1895, and thus the birth of the “atomic ageâ€. Next Becquerel’s investigations of these mysterious rays led to his experiments with uranium salt crystals. He th...
متن کاملValidation of computed tomography-based attenuation correction of deviation between theoretical and actual values for four computed tomography scanners
Objective: In this study, we aimed to validate the accuracy of computed tomography-based attenuation correction (CTAC) using the bilinear scaling method.Methods: The measured attenuation coefficient (μm) was compared to a theoretical attenuation coefficient (μt ) using four different CT scanners and an RMI 467 phantom. The effective energy of the CT beam X-rays was calculated, using the aluminu...
متن کاملRadioprotective effects of selenium and vitamin-E against 6MV X-rays in human blood lymphocytes by micronucleus assay
Background: Critical macromolecules of cells such as DNA are in exposure to damage of free radicals that induced from the interaction of ionizing radiation with biological systems. Selenium and vitamin-E are natural compounds that have been shown to be a direct free radical scavenger. The aim of this study was to investigate the radioprotective effect of selenium and vitamin-E separately and sy...
