  Background and Objective : Natural radioactivity has been the subject of studies for many years. The mean of radiation doses of human from natural sources is about 2.5 mSv/year, but in some regions in the world this value is many times greater than the world mean. Ramsar, a city in Iran, is one of the most important high natural background areas of the world. According to UNSCEAR 2000 report,...

[ 2 ] - بررسی سطح سلامت ساکنین مناطق با پرتو زایی زمینه بالا و زمینه پایین در رامسر

مقدمه و هدف: رامسر در شمال ایران، بالاترین میزان پرتوزایی زمینه را در سطح جهان داراست. این پرتوزایی عمدتاً به دلیل وجود عنصر رادیواکتیو رادیوم و فرآورده های استحاله آن است که توسط چشمه های آب گرم به سطح زمین آورده می شوند. آثار دزهای کم پرتو بر سلامت انسان همچنان در هاله ای از ابهام قرار داشته و هنوز تحت بررسی های متعدد قرار دارد. هدف از این تحقیق بررسی وضعیت سلامت ساکنین مناطق با پرتوزایی زمینه...

[ 3 ] - Radioadaptive Response in Human Lymphocyte Cells

The adaptive response (AR) is a phenomenon by which cells exposure to sublethal doses of DNA-damaging agents (non-mutagenic dose of chemical or radiation), known as conditioning treatment (CT), leads to increased resistance to a subsequent exposure to a higher dose of the same or other agents, known as challenge treatment (CR). The adaptive response (AR) induced by radiation in human lymphocyte...

[ 4 ] - Is Radiosensitivity Associated to Different Types of Blood Groups? (A cytogenetic study)

Many biological factors affect radiosensitivity. In this study, radiosensitivity among the different blood groups was investigated. Peripheral blood sample of 95 healthy people were divided into two parts. One part was irradiated with 2 Gy Co-60 gamma rays and the second one was considered as control. Then all the samples were studied by cytokinesis-blocked micronucleus assay (CBMN assay). Our ...

[ 5 ] - Estimation of external natural background gamma ray doses to the population of Caspian coastal provinces in North of Iran

Background: The effect of natural background radiation on health is still controversial. However, it is clear that it depends on the dose received by the population. The estimation of external natural background gamma rays received by the population of Caspian coastal provinces in the northern part of Iran was the main goal of this study. Materials and Methods: Gamma rays was measured ...

[ 6 ] - Repeat analysis program in radiology departments in Mazandaran province- Iran Impact on population radiation dose

Background: The rejected films in radiography may be responsible for an unnecessary increase in the radiation dose to the population. The effective dose to population is a very important factor in estimation of stochastic risk in radiology. The main goal of this study was to determine the effective dose to members of the public due to rejected films in diagnostic radiology departments in the No...

[ 7 ] - Can previous thyroid scan induce cytogenetic radioadaptive response in patients treated by radioiodine for hyperthyroidism?

Background: Induction of radioadaptive responses in cells pretreated with a low dose radiation before exposure to a high dose is well documented by many investigators. The aim of this study is to determine the frequency of chromosomal aberration in peripheral blood lymphocytes of patients treated by radioiodine (131I) for hyperthyroidism, with or without previous thyroid scan with 99mTc. Materi...

[ 8 ] - فاکتورهای پیش بینی کننده میزان حساسیت پرتویی در رادیوتراپی فردی

سابقه و هدف: دوز پرتویی در رادیوتراپی بیماران براساس نوع و گرید تومور و درمانهای جانبی در غالب پروتکل های آنکولوژی متفاوت است. از طرفی برخی فاکتورهای پیش بینی کننده حساسیت پرتویی فردی در تجویز دوز در رژیم های درمانی کنونی در نظر گرفته نمی شود که با رعایت رادیوتراپی فردی می توان دوز پرتو را با رعایت کنترل تومور کاهش داد تا عوارض جانبی کاهش یابد .در این مطالعه مهمترین فاکتورهای موثر در پیش بینی ح...

[ 9 ] - پرتوزایی طبیعی، تطبیق و هورمسیس پرتویی

خلاصه پرتوزایی طبیعی سالهاست که مورد توجه دانشمندان قرار گرفته است. معمولاً سطح پرتوگیری انسان از منابع مختلف طبیعی حدود 5/2 میلی سیورت در سال است. این میزان در برخی از مناطق دنیا، بسیار بیشتر است. یکی از مهم‌ترین این نقاط، رامسر است که دارای بیشترین سطح پرتوزایی طبیعی در مناطق مسکونی تمام زمین است. پرتوزایی زمینه یک تابش یونیزاسیون (Ionizing Radiation) است که در محیط طبیعت وجود دارد و می‌تواند ...

[ 10 ] - Combined Effect of Iodine Contrast Media, Cisplatin and External Beam Radiotherapy on Anaplastic Thyroid Cancer Cells
