Total dose evaluation of deep submicron CMOS imaging technology through elementary device and pixel array behavior analysis [PDF]
Ionizing radiation effects on CMOS image sensors (CIS) manufactured using a 0.18 µm imaging technology are presented through the behavior analysis of elementary structures, such as field oxide FET, gated diodes, photodiodes and MOSFETs.

Application of Lead Substitute Shielding Materials for X and Gamma-Rays Attenuation in Diagnostic Radiology: A Review Article [PDF]
Lead is the most widely used material for radiation protection in diagnostic radiology because its ability to attenuate x-rays is superior to other materials due to its high atomic number, high density, and its higher economic affordability.

Analyzing Serum Level Changes in Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate, Dihydrotestosterone, Progesterone, and Prolactin after Radioactive Iodine Treatment for Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma [PDF]
Introduction: Effective treatment of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is total thyroidectomy which is followed by radioactive iodine therapy (RIT) to ablate pathologic thyroid remnants and treat metastatic tumors.

Effect of Dose Irradiation on the Expression of BRCA1 and BRCA2Genes in MCF-10A and MCF-7 cell lines [PDF]
Introduction: Breast cancer can be caused by a mutation in its genome. Some mutations are cancer-predisposition which exist at the moment of germ cell genesis. It has been discovered that BRCA1 and BRCA2 are linked to hereditary breast cancer.

A Multiwavelength Study on the Fate of Ionizing Radiation in Local Starbursts [PDF]
The fate of ionizing radiation is vital for understanding cosmic ionization, energy budgets in the interstellar and intergalactic medium, and star formation rate indicators. The low observed escape fractions of ionizing radiation have not been adequately
