introduction gallium-67 (67ga) has been used as a radionuclide for imaging a variety of solid tumors since 1969. since then use of various gallium-based radiotracers has been reported. recently, 67ga-labeled acetylacetate bis(thiosemicarbazones) (67ga-aats) complex with significant tumor accumulation and fast blood clearance has been employed. materials and methods in this study, the absorbed d...

Introduction In order to treat uveal Melanoma , first, radioactive seeds are laid on a silicone- made substance which is called Silastic after that they are inserted in the plaque, and finally, this plaque containing silicone-made substance is stitched to the sclera surface. The dose gradient within the tumor and healthy tissues can be varied due to changing the Silastic thickness between scler...

BACKGROUND Previous phase III studies in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) not adequately controlled on levodopa demonstrated significant reduction of 'off' time with rotigotine transdermal system up to 16 mg/24 h. However, the minimal effective dose has not been established. OBJECTIVE This international, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study (SP921; NCT00522379) in...

The ecocentric strategy of radiation protection involves the expansion experimental bases radiation-induced effects in representatives biota. In this article we studied change relevant indicator (mortality) terrestrial mollusk F. fruticum M. after gamma-irradiation with doses from 10 to 300 Gy. is not yet included list reference species, but it meets requirements ICRP for organisms. aim work es...

Background: Absolute dosimetry of external beam radiotherapy is carried out by the use of ionization chambers. These chambers must be calibrated at a standard dosimetry laboratory before any use in clinical dosimetry. The secondary standard dosimetry laboratory of Iran (SSDL) has the duty of calibrating the ionization chambers used in radiotherapy centers in Iran. Materials and Methods...

background: natural background radiation of a particular region is one of the distinctive factors defining the status of environment. eloor island is an industrial area in ernakulum district of the state of kerala, india. the indoor and outdoor gamma level measurements have been carried out for the region for evaluating the annual effective dose to the population residing in this area. material...
