[ 1 ] - Measuring the Skyshine from Linear accelerator in Rajaee Oncology Hospital

Introduction: Radiation therapy is using the ionizing radiation to eliminate or minimize cancerous tissues. This method has been very much considered in recent years. Because of the high energy of the photons produced by the accelerator, it is necessary to protect the walls, roof and the floor of the treatment rooms using the concrete and leaden materials. One of these harmful ...

[ 2 ] - Developing a mobile application for usual calculations of radiotherapy physics

Introduction: Successful radiotherapy requires the precise application of a radiation dose to cancerous tissue, which can be achieved by the design of proper treatment methods by radiotherapy physicists. Tasks performed by radiotherapy physicists include verifying the accuracy of dose calculations, correct treatment planning and the proper functioning of accelerators. They are...

[ 3 ] - Determination of Diagnostic Reference Level in routine Computed radiography examination in north of Iran

Introduction: Digital radiography has a major role in nowadays healthcare system so radiation protection (justification and optimization) is important in this field. Many related organizations to protection suggested to establish national and regional diagnostic reference level for medical procedures. Reference levels are typically set at the 75th percentile of the dose distri...

[ 4 ] - The assessment of function, histopathological changes, and oxidative stress in liver tissue due to ionizing and non-ionizing radiations

Background: Compared to past decades, humans are exposed to rapidly increasing levels of radiofrequency electromagnetic radiations (RF-EMF). Despite numerous studies, the biological effects of human exposure to different levels of RF-EMF are not fully understood, yet. This study aimed to evaluate the bioeffects of exposure to "900/1800 MHz" and “2.4 GHz" RF-EMFs, and x-rays as well as their pot...
