At Midland Memorial Hospital, we understand hearing the word “radiation” can make patients nervous — and that is a valid concern. A CT scan (computer tomography scan) exposes the body to ionizing ...

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between cumulative fluoroscopy dose and eye lens radiation dose among interventional radiologists, and to develop a predictive model to ...

For some patients, EOS is an appropriate imaging alternative that reduces radiation exposure. EOS imaging is a low-dose, weight-bearing X-ray technology. It can simultaneously take full-body, frontal ...

Pregnancy introduces unique challenges to radiation therapy because of the potential risks it poses to the developing fetus. Ionizing radiation can be harmful, but medical physicists are trained to ...

Abstract: Flash memory is an essential part of systems used in harsh environments, experienced by both terrestrial and aerospace TID applications. This paper presents studies of COTS flash memory TID ...

Background One goal of increasing awareness of radiation dose is to encourage personal and technical modifications in order to reduce the radiation exposure of patients and staff. Objective To analyze ...

Objective: To compare effective radiation dose of low-dose 64-slice CTCA using prospective ECG-triggering versus diagnostic invasive coronary angiography (CA). Methods: 42 patients referred for ...

Knowledge of the principles of radiological protection, such as justification, optimization of protection, and application of the individual dose limit is essential, because, when implanted, the ...

This study carried out a critical review of the principles of radioprotection, including the ALARA, ALADA, and ALADAIP principles. The Google Scholar and PubMed databases were the search resources, ...

In the post-RT group, the GW-FCS in left visual cortex was negatively correlated with radiation dosage for the brain stem (r = -0.35, p = 0.039), and for the left temporal lobe (r = -0.46, p = 0.0058) ...
