Advances of Amifostine in Radiation Protection: Administration and Delivery.

Molecular Pharmaceutics, 2023
Amifostine (AMF, also known as WR-2721) is the only approved broad-spectrum small-molecule radiation protection agent that can combat hematopoietic damage caused by ionizing radiation and is used as an antitumor adjuvant and cell protector in cancer ...

Catalytic Nanozyme for Radiation Protection.

Bioconjugate chemistry, 2021
Radiotherapy has been widely used in clinical cancer treatment. However, the ionizing radiation required to kill the tumor will inevitably cause damage to the surrounding normal tissues.

Study of epoxy shielding material with barium sulphate for development of radiation protection materials in low-dose diagnostic X-ray

Radiation effects and defects in solids (Print), 2021
In radiological work, it is necessary to use radiation protection devices to reduce the negative health effects of radiation. Currently, the most used material for protection is lead, but it has disadvantages such as environmental toxicity. The objective

Radiation Protection

2015
This chapter focuses on the protection of biologic entities from radiation, with an overarching principle being ALARA—as low as reasonably achievable. Radiation exposure is reduced by minimizing time, maximizing distance, and incorporating proper shielding.

Radiation biology and radiation protection

Annals of the ICRP, 2012
For protection purposes, the biological effects of radiation are separated into stochastic effects (cancer, hereditary effects) presumed to be unicellular in origin, and tissue reactions due to injury in populations of cells. The latter are deterministic effects, renamed ‘tissue reactions’ in the 2007 Recommendations of the International Commission on

Ionizing radiation and radiation protection

2017
Ionizing radiation has been revolutionizing the diagnostic process in medicine. However, its use is not without risk, necessitating protection of patients and staff from potential harm. The amount of radiation patients receive continues to rise, mainly due to the use of high-dose examination techniques such as computed tomography and image-guided ...
