1. 1. Exposure Monitoring and Dosimetry - Optimizing Radiation Protection in Interventional Cardiology

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik; Umeå universitet/Institutionen för strålningsvetenskaper

   Author : Amanda Pettersson; [2023]
   Keywords : Interventional cardiology; Radiation protection; Air kerma measurements; Radiation shielding; Projection angle;

   Abstract : During interventional cardiology (IC), medical staff are exposed to scattered ionizing radiation from the patient, potentially leading to various radiation-induced health effects. Therefore, shielding devices are routinely used to reduce occupational exposure during IC procedures. READ MORE

3. 2. A comparison between LiF, Al2O3 and NaCl pellets for luminescence dosimetry based on clinical and laboratory measurements

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

   Author : Edita Solak; [2021]
   Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

   Abstract : Radiation protection is of importance for the general public, patients and personnel in many different situations: rare accidents involving ionizing radiation, medical examinations or work tasks in the medical clinic or nuclear industry to name a few. Optimization in radiation protection and limitation of radiation doses are essential to prevent overexposure and for reducing negative health consequences. READ MORE

4. 3. Optimization of the Gamma Knife Treatment Room Design

   University essay from KTH/Fysik

   Author : Nelly Nygren; [2021]
   Keywords : Gamma Knife; Treatment Room; Radiation Shielding; Dose Calculation; Computation; Monte Carlo; Simulation; Phase Space; Optimization; Gamma Knife; Behandlingsrum; Strålskydd; Stråldosberäkning; Beräkning; Monte Carlo; Simulering; Fasrum; Optimering;

   Abstract : Radiation shielding is a central part of the design of treatment rooms for radiation therapy systems. The dose levels that medical staff and members of the public can be exposed to outside the treatment rooms are regulated by authorities and influence the required wall thicknesses and possible locations for the systems.

   Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

   Abstract : "Space agencies and privat e companies are working hard to solve the various challenges that need to be overcome to take humans to Mars . The journey to Mars has mult ifaceted risks for the crew, includin g radiation exposure. One risk factor that could jeopar dize t he crew's healt h is the radiation dose from a !arge solar partide event (SPE) .. READ MORE

6. 5. Monte Carlo-simulation of whole-body absorbed

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

   Author : Mattias Jensen; Mikael Westlund; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Radiation protection is important when working in lab environments where radioactive sources are frequently used. Simplified geometrical models are sometimes used in literature or in education to analytically estimate the absorbed dose a human receives. READ MORE
