Assessment of individual dose equivalents Hp(0.07) of medical staff occupationally exposed to ionizing radiation in 2012

open access: yesMedycyna Pracy, 2014
Background: The paper presents the Nofer Institutes of Occupational Medicine in Łódź's results of the assessment of individual dose equivalents Hp(0.07) of medical staff exposed to X-rays in Poland in 2012. In addition, the collected data was analysed in

Semi-experimental assessment of neutron equivalent dose and secondary cancer risk for off-field organs in glioma patients undergoing 18-MV radiotherapy.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Neutron contamination as a source of out-of-field dose in radiotherapy is still of concern. High-energy treatment photons have the potential to overcome the binding energy of neutrons inside the nuclei.

Distribution and Excretion of TEGDMA in Guinea Pigs and Mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The monomer triethyleneglycoldimethacrylate (TEGDMA) is used as a diluent in many resin-based dental materials. It was previously shown in vitro that TEGDMA was released into the adjacent biophase from such materials during the first days after placement.

Validation of a Monte Carlo Framework for Out-of-Field Dose Calculations in Proton Therapy

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
Proton therapy enables to deliver highly conformed dose distributions owing to the characteristic Bragg peak and the finite range of protons. However, during proton therapy, secondary neutrons are created, which can travel long distances and deposit dose

A dose estimation for persons occupationally exposed to ionizing radiation in Montenegro [PDF]

open access: yesArchive of Oncology, 2008
Background: Persons occupationally exposed to ionizing radiation are subject to radiation protection due to potential harmful effects of radiation. Dose monitoring of professionally exposed workers is an essential regulatory measure in radiation protec ...

Response of Photon Dosimeters and Survey Instruments to New Operational Quantities Proposed by ICRU RC26

open access: yes, 2018
Operational quantities in radiation protection are defined as conservative estimates of the protection quantities, which are generally not accessible to measurement.

Characterization of a PN3 personal neutron dosimeter based on (n,α) reaction

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2015
This study describes a new methodology for characterizing the sensitivity of personal neutron dose-equivalent dosimeters consisting of a PN3 (trade name of the CR-39 type) nuclear track detector coupled with a natural boron converter BN1 (20% 10B, 80 ...

Eye Lens Radiation Dose to Nurses during Cardiac Interventional Radiology: An Initial Study

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2023
Although interventional radiology (IVR) is preferred over surgical procedures because it is less invasive, it results in increased radiation exposure due to long fluoroscopy times and the need for frequent imaging.

New measurements of total ionizing dose in the lunar environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
[1] We report new measurements of solar minimum ionizing radiation dose at the Moon onboard the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) from June 2009 through May 2010.
