Introduction: Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women. Brachytherapy is one of the ways to treat breast cancer. In brachytherapy treatments, high-dose sources are used in interstitial placement. Here, Iridium-192 is used. This source emits gamma rays with energies ranging from 136 kV to 1060 kV electron volts. The activity of the used spring is 10 Ci. The simulated ...

in order to improve the performance of a newly developed radiochromic film, gic-79, somedosimetric characteristics of this film have been studied based on relevant standard practice. the presentstudy describes some parameters that may affect the dosimeter response before, during, and after irradiation. the effect of absorbed dose rate on dosimeter response was determined by irradiating dosimete...

background marketing new radiography devices necessitates documenting their absorbed x-ray doses. since the current literature lacks studies on new devices, we assessed the doses of two new devices that had not previously been assessed. objectives the new devices were compared to the promax three dimensional (3d) scanner at two fields of view (fov) in nine critical head and neck tissues and org...

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...
