Glioblastoma is most common and most aggressive cancer of brain. for treatment surgery is first selection and radiation therapy then chemotherapy. The median survival of Patients with GBM is less than a year after diagnosis. Glioblastoma is basically resistant to common cancer treatments. today to improve the response of patients to treatment, a number of strategies such as the use of radiation...

Introduction: Most of people are exposed to ionizing radiation sources during their lifetime including background, cosmic or man-made beams like radiation used in nuclear medicine and radiology. Due to unavoidable use of ionizing radiation in diagnosis and treatment of diseases, designing and correct implementation of radiation protection principles in order to reducing its har...

Radiation induced sarcoma is a rare but recognized complication of radiotherapy and is associated with poor prognosis, frequently occurs 5 years after completion of treatment. We report radiation-induced sarcoma in a 42 years old male, involving the left parietooccipital scalp region following treatment of brain tumor with craniotomy and post-operative radiation with 60Co machine. Diagnosis of ...

radiation damage is to a large extent caused by overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ros). radioprotectors are agents or substances that reduce the effects of radiation in healthy normal tissues while maintaining the sensitivity to radiation damage in tumor cells. radioprotectors are agents or substances that reduce the effects of radiation in healthy normal tissues while maintaining the ...

background: distinction between radiation necrosis and recurrence of intraparenchymal tumors is necessary to select the appropriate treatment, but it is often difficult based on imaging features alone. we developed an algorithm for analyzing magnetic resonance spectroscopy (mrs) findings and studied its accuracy in differentiation between radiation necrosis and tumor recurrence. m e t hod s :  ...

background: the fatal effect of ionizing radiation on cells depends on linear energy transfer (let) level. the distribution of ionizing radiation is sparse and homogeneous for low let radiations such as x or γ, but it is dense and concentrated for high let radiation such as heavy-ions radiation. material and methods: chinese hamster ovary cells (cho-k1) were exposed to 4 gy fe-ion 2000 kev/m. ...

the solar radiation received by earth surface is one of the most applicable parameter that is so important in hydrology, agriculture, meteorology and climatological modeling. because of very expensive instrument for measuring the radiation, researchers suggested many different experimental equations to estimate this parameter in different climate. seven models which are calibrated for semi-arid...

The perioperative imaging of a pregnant woman presents a unique challenge to orthopaedics surgeon as concern about the radiation risk to the embryo or fetus. This article highlights effect of radiation exposure on foetus.I would like to discuss about the amount of radiation exposure in a pregnant woman during fluoroscopic guided closed femoral Interlock nailing as radiation has significant...

Solar Radiation is considered as an important parameter in modeling environmental, hydrologic and biophysical processes. One of the reasons that solar radiations are not extensively used in models is the problem of its measurement in different points. Solar Analyst Viewshed Algorithm makes possible calculation of the topographic effects on solar radiation at local and landscape scales. With res...
