TRANSVAGINAL CESIUM 137 THERAPY
American Journal of Roentgenology, 19671. Transvaginal irradiation is indicated in: patients with cancer of the cervical stump, with hemorrhaging cancer of the cervix, and in patients where intracavitary radium treatment is not possible for cancer of the cervix uteri.2. Transvaginal cesium 137 therapy is made practical by adapting del Regato applicators to the teletherapy unit, and may be ...

Health Physics, 1989
Fallout 137Cs levels in soil were measured at 11 diverse sites throughout Montana. Concentrations in near-surface samples ranged from 20-200 mBq g-1 (0.51-5.41 pCi g-1). Most of the 137Cs was in the top 10 cm of soil. Deeper occurrences were attributed to disturbances by animals and to interstitial flow of small sediment particles within saturated ...

Science, 1963
During the summer of 1962, levels of radioactivity in over 700 people at four villages above the Arctic Circle in Alaska were measured with a transportable whole-body counter. The averages for body burden of cesium-137 were much higher than the average for people in the rest of the United States. The people of the interior village of Anaktuvuk Pass had

Cesium-137 source strength verification
Medical Dosimetry, 2000Over the years, the protocol for Cesium-137 source calibration has undergone a number of revisions based on updated data. The 3M Corporation issued product alerts and a revision of the calibration protocol in the early 1980s. We verified the activity of clinically used cesium tubes and found the difference with the activity stated by 3M in the range of

Erosional Behavior of Cesium-137
Health Physics, 1970AbstractMovement of 137Cs by runoff, erosion, and infiltration on a silt-loam soil in Tennessee is reported. A summary of a 2-yr study is given, and a model for the nuclide erosional loss is suggested.

I. Cesium-137 Metabolism in Man
Radiation Research, 1963The study of the metabolism and distribution of cesium-137 is of particular interest at present because it is a biologically important fission product present in radioactive fallout. Animal experiments have shows species differences in the excretion patterns of parenterally and orally administered Cs137.

Concentration of Cesium-137 by Algae
Science, 1958The adsorption-absorption of Cs/sup 137/ by algae is of interest because Cs/sup 137/ of the critical fission products in power reactor wastes and atomic weapon fall-out. It is well known that plankton takes up radioactivity in fairly high concentrations. The purpose of this investigation was to study the accumulation of Cs/sup 137/ by fresh water-algae.

The Cesium-137 Thermoelectric Generator
IRE Transactions on Military Electronics, 1962Designed for the initial application of supplying power for an under-sea seismic station to be supervised by Lamont Geological Observatory researchers, this cesium generator incorporates an external shell that will withstand compressive forces at the greatest of ocean depths and a power-conversion system employing lead telluride thermocouples mounted ...

Cesium-137 Decorporation Model
2014Abstract : A treatment model for Cs-137 internal contamination by Prussian Blue was developed to evaluate efficacy of various treatment regimens. The model estimates Cs deposition, absorption, distribution, retention, excretion, and response to DTPA after an inhalation exposure.

Environmental mobility of cesium-137
Radiation Botany, 1970During a 2-year study, erosion, soil losses of 53, 2·5 and 0·9 metric tons/ha were coupled with 137Cs losses of 43, 19 and 7 per cent, on 2·3 × 2·3 m bare soil, poor meadow and good meadow plots respectively. Runoff and erosion losses of 137Cs from vegetation-covered plots occurred primarily in the initial stages following the application, due to ...
