Physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling provides important capabilities for improving the reliability of the extrapolations across dose, species, and exposure route that are generally required in chemical risk assessment regardless of the toxic end point being considered. Recently, there has been an increasing focus on harmonization of the cancer and noncancer risk assessment approaches ...

beryllium  oxide  (beo)  nanopowder  was  synthesized  using  sol-gel method  and  the  effects  of  changes of  chemical  reagents  were investigated.  because  of  tissue  equivalence  and  other  outstanding thermoluminescence  (tl) properties of  the bulk material  in x and γ dosimetry, the applicability of this nanostructure in tl dosimetry was studied  following  irradiation to  the 137 c...

The solid state active detectors, widely used for conventional radiotherapy, such as diamond detectors (DD) and diodes may be attractive tools also in dosimetry of therapeutic proton beams. Diodes are broadly applied in oncology clinics and routinely used for in-vivo dosimetry [1, 8]. These real-time detectors are rugged, relatively inexpensive and provide on-line readings, what allows for quic...

BACKGROUND Coincidence imaging of low-abundance yttrium-90 (90Y) internal pair production by positron emission tomography with integrated computed tomography (PET/CT) achieves high-resolution imaging of post-radioembolization microsphere biodistribution. Part 2 analyzes tumor and non-target tissue dose-response by 90Y PET quantification and evaluates the accuracy of tumor 99mTc macroaggregated ...

With emerging techniques for tracking and gating methods in radiotherapy of lung cancer patients, there is an increasing need for efficient four-dimensional Monte Carlo (4DMC) based quality assurance (QA). An automated and flexible workflow for 4DMC QA, based on the 4DdefDOSXYZnrc user code, has been developed in python. The workflow has been tested and verified using an in-house developed dosi...

OBJECTIVE To summarize the research progress about the dosimetry and biological predictors of radiation-induced esophagitis. METHODS We performed a systematic literature review addressing radiation esophagitis in the treatment of lung cancer published between January 2009 and May 2015 in the PubMed full-text database index systems. RESULTS Twenty-eight eligible documents were included in th...

Retrospective assessment of exposure to radon remains the greatest challenge in epidemiologic efforts to assess lung cancer risk associated with residential exposure. An innovative technique based on measurement of alpha-emitting, long-lived daughters embedded by recoil into household glass may one day provide improved radon dosimetry. Particulate air pollution is known, however, to retard the ...

chronic granulomatous disease (cgd) is a rare primary immunodeficiency disease. although the most affected patients are diagnosed in childhood, there are several reports of the disease presenting in adult patients. here we present a 40 years old man who was admitted in hospital due to respiratory symptoms and ground glass pattern in high resolution computed tomography of lung. open lung biopsy ...

a pulmonary embolus clogs the artery that provides blood supply to a part of the lung. the embolus not only prevents the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide but also decreases blood supply to the lung tissue itself, potentially causing the tissue to die (infarct). a 52-year-old man presented with syncope and anxiety. he had sinus tachycardia and dilated right ventricle with trabeculations. a ...

Synchrotron-generated microbeam radiotherapy holds great promise for future treatment, but the high dose gradients present conventional dosimetry with a challenge. Measuring the important peak-to-valley dose ratio (PVDR) of a microbeam-collimated synchrotron source requires both a dosimeter and an analysis method capable of exceptional spatial resolution. The PVDR is of great interest since it ...
