sir, the big flooding in thailand in 2011 is one of the problematic flooding in asia. it causes several destroying to many things in the disaster areas. an important concern is on the effect on the setting with the radioactive elements usage. in thailand, there are some places with radioactive elements including to the university, hospital as well as radioactive research center. luckily, during...

the present nuclear leakage crisis from japan is a topic to be discussed in present public health. in radiology, the leaked radioactive elements are considered hazard. here, the author briefly reviews and discusses on two important radio-hazard elements in post nuclear power plant crisis, radioactive iodine and radioactive cesium. based on previous similar nuclear crisis in russia, it is eviden...

Sir, the big flooding in Thailand in 2011 is one of the problematic flooding in Asia. It causes several destroying to many things in the disaster areas. An important concern is on the effect on the setting with the radioactive elements usage. In Thailand, there are some places with radioactive elements including to the university, hospital as well as radioactive research center. Luckily, ...

Accidental or intentional release of radioactive materials into the living or working environment may cause radioactive contamination. In nuclear medicine departments, radioactive contamination is usually due to radionuclides which emit high energy gamma photons and particles. These radionuclides have a broad range of energies and penetration capabilities. Rapid detection of radioactive contami...

radioactive iodine therapy is commonly used as an adjuvant therapy in follicular and papillary thyroid carcinoma and also in the treatment of graves’ disease. the basis of which is the accumulation of radioactive iodine by the sodium-iodide symporter (nis) in the thyroid gland. expression of nis by extrathyroidal tissues including islets of pancreas has been reported. radioactive iodine uptake ...

We consider the problem of finding the localization of radioactive source by using data from a digital camera. In other words, the camera could help us to detect the direction of radioactive rays radiation. Therefore, the outcome could be used to command a robot to move toward the true direction to achieve the source. The process of camera data is performed by using image processing and computa...

Here, the author briefly reviews and discusses on two important radio-hazard elements in post nuclear power plant crisis, radioactive iodine and radioactive cesium.

introduction: one of the sources of natural occurring radiation was soils. the purpose of article was to determine soil pollution by radiation absorbed dose rate, radium equivalent activity, external hazard index, annual gonad dose equivalent and annual effective dose equivalent. methods & materials: the soil samples was located in chahbahar city in blouchestan of iran, was chosen for studying ...

Background: The Ural region is highlighted among other Russian regions for its unfavorable radiation situation and complexity of the overall environmental situation. The source of man-made radioactive contamination is the work of the "Mayak" Production Association. A significant radioactive contamination has happened as a result of several radiation incidents in the early period ...
