When decommissioning a nuclear power plant, a large amount of radioactive waste will be
generated. It must be disposed of in a safe and efficient way. Approximately 50% of …

The basements of large hospitals in Taiwan are usually working areas for image radiometry,
radiation therapy, and nuclear medicine, where the radon concentration can be …

Background The most accurate method for estimating effective dose (the most widely
understood metric for tracking patient radiation exposure) from computed tomography (CT) …

Purpose Considering the existing gaps in the literature regarding patient radiation dose
(RD) and its associated risks, a systematic review of the literature on RD was conducted …

Medical imaging is both valuable and essential in the care of patients. Much of this imaging
depends on ionizing radiation with attendant responsibilities for judicious use when …

Purpose Increasing epidemiological and biological evidence suggests that radiation
exposure enhances cancer risk in a dose-dependent manner. This can be attributed to the …

Despite the known influence of anatomic variability on internal dosimetry, dosimetry for 18F-
FDG and other diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals is routinely derived using reference …

Objective To assess frequency, clinical indications, and cumulative effective dose (CED) of
patients undergoing multiple 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging. Methods Retrospective analysis of …

Objective This study examined radiation exposure and the possible risk of radiation-induced
cancer in a large sample of newborn and premature patients. Material and methods In this …

Objectives To estimate organ dose to major radiosensitive organs during pediatric body C-
arm CBCT and determine normalized organ doses using a state-of-the-art equipment …
