Large quantities of radiopharmaceuticals prescribed for treatment and diagnosis are excreted through kidney. Therefore, radiation unwanted dose is created in kidney. As a result, exact calculation of prescribed radiopharmaceuticals amount is important. Monte Carlo method is used for simulation of radiation transport in body due to random nature of radiation. In this research, for the first time...

introduction: different environmental factors such as drugs, ionizing radiation, etc can induce apoptosis.in the present study the effects of dose- rate and post-irradiation incubation time on gamma radiation inducedapoptosis in human breast carcinoma cell line (t-47d) (invasive ductal carcinoma) was investigated. material and methods: the t-47d cells were cultured in t25 flasks and during log ...

conclusions the increasing cell toxicity, apoptosis-inducing effects and decreasing telomerase activity may play an important role in the valproic acid and radiation mechanism. the current survey suggested that it is likely beneficial to combine valproic acid and gamma radiation to treat breast cancer. results combination of valproic acid and gamma radiation increased significantly cell toxicit...

Background: Hesperidin is a bioflavonoid glycoside mainly found in citrus fruit and has been shown radio-protective potential in various measurement systems. Objective: In this article aims to investigate the radio-protective effect of hesperidin on the liver of Sprague Dawely rats. Material and Methods: In this clinical study, 40 male rats were selected randomly and divided into 8 ...

background: dosimetry is a fundamental part of the radiation processing industry. aqueous inorganic dosimeters have been used for gamma radiation dosimetry such as standard ferrous sulfate dosimeter. the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of gamma radiation on the diethyl fumarate def in dimethyl sulfoxide dmso solution and its possible use in chemical dosimetry. materials and ...

background: in some areas of ramsar, a city in northern iran, residents receive a much higher annual radiation exposure than is permitted for radiation workers. induction of adaptive response in residents of ramsar has been reported previously. in this study induction of such a response in short term exposure to high background levels of gamma radiation is investigated. materials and methods: f...

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...

an extensive study was undertaken to investigate on the overall film badge service performance with which occupational radiation, exposures are reported in iran, the study involved the analysis of film badges exposed to x-and gamma rays and beta particles. for test exposures, x-rays between 60 and 140 kvpco-60 gamma radiation and sr-90 beta particles were used. the actual delivered dose equival...
