Upon increasing needs and vast application of neutron detectors, especially in nuclear reactors and growing number of linear accelerators, design and manufacturing of neutron detectors is a serious demand. The aim of this project is building neutron detectors capable of compensating gamma and temperature response in a radiation media. A special thermocouple coated with Boron carbide at the junc...
The theme of the conference was " Brachytherapy – an Immortal Art ". The pre-conference workshop (26 th August 2016) was conducted at Cancer Institute (WIA), Adyar, Chennai. The workshop included live hands-on demonstration of interstitial brachyther-apy procedures for oropharyngeal cancer (base of tongue), and intra-operative brachytherapy for soft tissue sarcoma of gluteal region. The procedu...
PURPOSE To report the treatment effect of interstitial brachytherapy for chest wall locoregional recurrence of breast cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS This 44-year-old female presented with chest wall recurrence seven years after modified radical mastectomy for stage II breast cancer. Despite external beam radiation and chemotherapy, the lesion expanded as 5.3 × 5.1 × 3.0 cm(3), and 8.0 × 5.1 × 4...
Purpose To report an innovative technique of interstitial brachytherapy developed for treatment of orbital soft tissue tumors. Material and methods A 4-month-old child diagnosed with rhabdomyosarcoma of orbit was treated with multiagent chemotherapy (CTh) and brachytherapy. Pre-planning computed tomography (CT) images were obtained and clinical target volume (CTV) was defined using the pre-tr...
Background: To evaluate the effects of hyperthermia (HT) on the frequency of chromosomal aberrations induced by a low dose of neutron or γ-rays in human peripheral blood lymphocytes. Materials and Methods: Blood samples were exposed to HT (41.5°C for 30 and 60min, 43°C for 15 and 30min), 10 cGy neutron or γ-rays, HT + neutron/γ, and neutron/γ + HT. After standard cell culture, harvestin...
Background: Neutron contamination is produced in electron beams of linac when tooth or dental materials are located in the path of beam. Objective: This study aims to determine the neutron dose contamination from different dental restoration materials in electron mode of a linac. Material and Methods: In this experimental study, the neutron dose contamination was calculated in the p...
Intracavitary brachytherapy treatment has a very important role in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer. Brachytherapy is painful procedure, especially whom opening cannot be achieved, and requires analgesia immobilization. The American Association (ABA) recommends the use of conscious sedation as much possible intracavitary high-doserate (HDR) applications diagnosed In this review, w...
In order to achieve a thermal neutron beam for neutron radiography applications, a new neutron collimator has been designed, installed and characterized at Tehran Research Reactor (TRR). TRR is a 5 MW, open pool and light water coolant reactor with seven beam tubes. Neutron collimator that is an important part of neutron radiography system was installed in the six inch E beam tube. Collimator d...
PURPOSE Permanent low-dose-rate (LDR-BT) and temporary high-dose-rate (HDR-BT) brachytherapy are competitive techniques for clinically localized prostate radiotherapy. Although a randomized trial will likely never to be conducted comparing these two forms of brachytherapy, a comparative analysis proves useful in understanding some of their intrinsic differences, several of which could be exploi...
PURPOSE We performed a survey amongst attendees of the 4(th) Annual Meeting of Indian Brachytherapy Society to study the patterns of brachytherapy practice and attitude towards brachytherapy use. MATERIAL AND METHODS A 19-point questionnaire was designed and e-mailed to the attendees immediately after the conference. Descriptive analysis of the responses were done and satisfaction index was u...
