Background: Several potential challenges with radiation protection (RP) and safety culture in radiology departments need to be addressed. This study assesses radiographers’ adherence to radiation protection practices in radiology departments. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among radiographers; 210 self-administrated questionnaires were sent to the participants. An ...

one of the ways to be informed on the extent of activities in various industries is to measure the rate of nominal protection. this paper tries to calculate the nominal and effective protection in order to examine the exchange rate unification impacts on the protection of pulp and paper industries with the aim of performing the exchange rate unification policy. therefore, nominal protection rat...

Interoperability in digital TV is still hampered by proprietary content protection systems. The OPIMA specification offers a generic solution for multimedia terminals, in which the end-user’s terminal is adapted to a content protection system by downloading a corresponding plug-in. This paper describes the OPIMA solution and shows how it can be applied to digital TV.

Introduction: Radiation exposure during radiological examination is a health concern, of which radiology professionals should be cognizant. We sought to evaluate the radiation protection knowledge, attitudes, and practice (KAP) amongst radiology staff of hospitals across 10 provinces of Iran. Materials and Methods: For evaluating the level of radiation protection KAP, 553 radiology staff were e...

A simple strategy for preparation of reduced graphene oxide (RGO)/TiO2 hybrid thin films was developed by UV-assisted incorporation of TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) onto RGO films. The UV-assisted incorporation of TiO2 NPs onto RGO films makes the hybrid films stable against prolonged exposure to UV light without the decrease of their conductivity and transparency.
