introduction magnetic fields are capable of altering the trajectory of electron beams andcan be used in radiation therapy.theaim of this study was to produce regions with dose enhancement and reduction in the medium. materials and methods the ndfeb permanent magnets were arranged on the electron applicator in several configurations. then, after the passage of the electron beams (9 and 15 mev va...

background: a dressing often covers the wound to accelerate its healing. hydrocolloid-type dressing to give better conditions for healing has been developed consisting of gelatin, pectin, water and hydrophilic polymer which promote healing. in recent years, much attention has been focused on the research and development of polymer hydrogels as biomaterials, such as contact lenses, wound dressin...

introduction: in clinical electron beams, most of bremsstrahlung radiation is produced by various linac head structures. this bremsstrahlung radiation dose is influenced by the geometry and construction of every component of the linac treatment head structures. thus, it can be expected that the amount of the contaminated photon dose due to bremsstrahlung radiation varies among different linacs,...

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...

in this research, cobalt and nickel sulfide nanoparticles (nps) were grown on almcm-41 matrix by using ion exchange method. the prepared samples were irradiated by thermalized neutron that emitted from am-be source up to fluencies (7.9+e9n/cm2). after that, x-ray diffraction (xrd), uv-vis spectroscopy, fourier transform infrared (ftir), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and transmission electr...

Introduction: In radiation therapy, knowing the dose rates to healthy organs and tumors is beneficial, and thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) allows for this possibility. This study was aimed at determining the dose-response differences of TLDs in various types of radiation, energy levels, and dose rate calibrated with other types of radiation beams and energy and dose levels. Materials and Meth...

abstract background: accurate methods of radiation therapy dose calculation. there are different monte carlo codesfor simulation of photons, electrons and the coupled transport of electrons and photons. mcnpis a general purpose monte carlo code that can be used for electron, photon and coupledphoton-electron transport.monte carlo simulation of radiation transport is considered to be one of the ...
