introduction international commission on radiological protection (icrp) has provided a comprehensive discussion on threshold dose for radiation-induced cataract in icrp publication 116. accordingly, various parts of the eye lens have different radio-sensitivities. recently, some studies have been performed to develop a realistic eye model with the aim of providing accurate estimation of fluence...

introduction today, there is a growing interest in the use of hadrontherapy as an advanced radiotherapy technique. hadrontherapy is considered a promising tool for cancer treatment, given its high radiobiological effectiveness and high accuracy of dose deposition due to the physical properties of hadrons. however, new radiation modalities of dose delivery and on-line beam monitoring play crucia...

the determination of gyration radius is a strong research for configuration of a macromolecule. italso reflects molecular compactness shape. in this work, to characterize the behavior of theprotein, we observe quantities such as the radius of gyration and the average energy. we studiedthe changes of these factors as a function of temperature for acetylcholine receptor protein in gasphase with n...

Introduction: Monte Carlo calculation method is considered to be the most accurate method for dose calculation in radiotherapy. The purpose of this research is comparison between 6 MV Primus LINAC simulation output with commissioning data using EGSnrc and build a Monte Carlo geometry of 6 MV Primus LINAC as realistically as possible. The BEAMnrc and DOSXYZnrc (EGSnrc package) M...

Background: Monte Carlo and experimental relative dose determination in a water phantom, due to a high dose rate (HDR) 192Ir source is presented for real energy spectrum and monochromatic at 356 keV. Materials and Methods: The dose distribution has been calculated around the 192Ir located in the center of 30 cm ×30 cm ×30 cm water phantom using MCNP4C code by Monte Carlo method. Relati...
