Reduction of radiation dose to the eye lens during common CT examinations of the head, paranasal sinus, and cervical spine in emergency settings: A phantom study

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Background Computed tomography (CT) examinations of the head, paranasal sinus (PNS), and cervical spine (C‐spine) are frequently performed in emergency settings, raising concerns about radiation exposure to the radiosensitive eye lens. Overexposure can cause radiation‐induced ocular damage.

Advanced dosimetry systems for the space transport and space station [PDF]

open access: yes, 1972
Advanced dosimetry system concepts are described that will provide automated and instantaneous measurement of dose and particle spectra. Systems are proposed for measuring dose rate from cosmic radiation background to greater than 3600 rads/hr.

Development and dosimetric evaluation of a freely deformable 6Li‐based neutron shield for boron neutron capture therapy

open access: yesMedical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Background Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) enables selective tumor irradiation by exploiting the high‐linear energy transfer particles generated from neutron interactions with 10B atoms. BNCT has been approved as an insurance‐covered medical treatment for recurrent head and neck cancer in Japan.

The Spinning Manny Indexed Overlay System for VMAT total body irradiation

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Purpose While modern intensity‐modulated techniques for total body irradiation (TBI) offer superior organ sparing and improved dose coverage compared to conventional TBI, their complexity has limited widespread adoption. Specifically, when treating individuals with Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT‐TBI), a transition between the head ...

Application of transport techniques to the analysis of NERVA shadow shields [PDF]

open access: yes, 1972
A radiation shield internal to the NERVA nuclear rocket reactor required to limit the neutron and photon radiation levels at critical components located external to the reactor was evaluated. Two significantly different shield mockups were analyzed: BATH,

Experimental verification of acuros XB in the presence of lung-equivalent heterogeneities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Acuros XB (AXB) is a deterministic algorithm that directly accounts for the effects of heterogeneities and improves the accuracy of photon dose calculations in radiotherapy. Nevertheless, the accuracy of AXB inside lung has not been yet fully examined by
