background: a study has been conducted to assess two useful radiation protection indices, the annual per-capita effective dose equivalent (aed) and the genetically significant dose (gsd), from conventional diagnostic radiography in 10 counties with more than 1,886,000 inhabitants in khorasan province in iran. materials and methods: the health centre authorities of khorasan province were asked t...

abstractbackground: polymer gels are an emerging new class of dosimeters which are being applied to the challenges of modern radiotherapy modalities. research on gel dosimetry involves several scientific domains, one of which is the imaging techniques with which dose data is extracted from the dosimeters. in the current work, we present our preliminary results of investigating capability of x-r...

background: the shielding methods in radiotherapy due to delivering an accurate radiation dose to cancer tissues and avoiding unnecessary dose to normal tissues are very important. these methods include lead standard blocks, individual molding and multi leaf collimator (mlc). the mlc method is not still common in iran radiotherapy centers. individual molding is better than the lead block shield...

Introduction: To write a computational program to calculate the average glandular dose in Mammography with Rh-Rh target-filter and also use it as an accurate and fast method of dose calculation founder different situations. Materials and Methods: In this research, the Sobol-Wu parameters are used to write a FORTRAN code for glandular dose calculation in Rh-Rh target-filter mammograms. The code ...
