Evaluation of radiation risk for patients undergoing medical examinations in the Russian Federation

open access: yesРадиационная гигиена, 2021
The aim of the study was to develop a methodology for assessing radiation risk for patients undergoing medical examinations in the Russian Federation. The methodology is based on the risk model of the ICRP Publication 103, the coefficients of lifetime ...

Investigation of F and Zr Isotopes Self-Absorption and Dose Rate Parameters for PET Imaging

open access: yesDose-Response, 2021
This work concerns study of self-absorption factor (SAF) and dose rate constants of zirconium-89 ( 89 Zr) for the purpose of radiation protection in positron emission tomography (PET) and to compare them with those of 18 F-deoxyglucose ( 18 F-FDG).

Automatic calcium scoring in low-dose chest CT using deep neural networks with dilated convolutions

open access: yes, 2018
Heavy smokers undergoing screening with low-dose chest CT are affected by cardiovascular disease as much as by lung cancer. Low-dose chest CT scans acquired in screening enable quantification of atherosclerotic calcifications and thus enable ...

On the Dose Coefficient of Uranium Hexafluoride

open access: yesMedical Radiology and radiation safety, 2021
Introduction: Uranium hexafluoride (UF6, UHF) is a gaseous product containing uranium and fluorine. Once in the air, it interacts with water vapor and produces hydrolysis products that can penetrate the human body and lead to the chemical effects of uranium and fluorine, as well as the radiation effects of uranium on the body.

Evaluation of the radiation risk of medical examinations in the Russian Federation taking into account the age and sex distribution of the patients

open access: yesРадиационная гигиена, 2022
The aim of the study was to develop a methodology that allows taking into account the age and sex dependencies of the risk of radiogenic cancer and the age and sex distribution of the patients to evaluate the collective risk due to separate X-ray ...

Hill coefficients, dose–response curves and allosteric mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Biology, 2009
Hill coefficients (n(H)) derived from four parameter logistic fits to dose-response curves were compared to calculated realistic reaction schemes and related to experimental data: (1) Hill coefficients may give information on the number of interacting sites but cannot distinguish between competitive, non-competitive or ortho-, iso-, or allosteric ...

A theoretical framework for estimation of AUCs in complete and incomplete sampling designs. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Nonclinical in vivo animal studies have to be completed before starting clinical studies of the pharmacokinetic behavior of a drug in humans. The drug exposure in animal studies is often measured by the area under the concentration versus time curve (AUC)

Personal dose-equivalent conversion coefficients for 1252 radionuclides [PDF]

open access: yesRadiation Protection Dosimetry, 2014
Dose conversion coefficients for radionuclides are useful for routine calculations in radiation protection in industry, medicine and research. They give a simple and often sufficient estimate of dose rates during production, handling and storage of radionuclide sources, based solely on the source's activity.
