background: results are presented on some dosimetric characteristics of sife – eldeen dosimeter based on the radiation induced conductivity (ric) of 3.5 m aqueous urea solutions. the studied characteristics were the response (ric) of sife – eldeen dosimeter in broad ranges of absorbed dose, dose rates and at different irradiation temperature. materials and methods: kent eil5007 conductivity met...

Dose distributions in HN-IMRT are complex and may be sensitive to the treatment uncertainties. The goals of this study were to evaluate: 1) dose differences between plan and actual delivery and implications on margin requirement for HN-IMRT with rigid setup errors; 2) dose distribution complexity on setup error sensitivity; and 3) agreement between average dose and cumulative dose in fractionat...

In order to evaluate internal dose, MIRD system was proposed by Society of Nuclear Medicine in 1976. MIRDOSE3 computer software based on this concept is currently the most frequently used tool to calculate the organ dose in nuclear medicine community. Unfortunately it uses fixed anthropomorphic phantoms, so the geometric parameters of organs are short of individual characteristics. Although the...

patients and methods we evaluated radiation exposure from initial and downstream testing in a prospectively collected, matched cohort evaluated for cp in the emergency department (ed) with either ccta compared with usual care over a median follow-up of 19.6 months. effective radiation dose was calculated using published conversion factors. results prospective, ecg-triggered acquisition using a ...
