Advance Access Publication Date: 2 November 2018 Cohort Profile these examinations, the
use of computed tomography (CT), a highly informative medical imaging technique, has …

Radiopharmaceutical dosimetry depends on the localization in space and time of radioactive
sources and requires the estimation of the amount of energy emitted by the sources …

Computed tomography (CT) has great clinical utility and its usage has increased dramatically
over the years. Concerns have been raised, however, about health impacts of ionising …

An improved biological weighting function (IBWF) is proposed to phenomenologically relate
microdosimetric lineal energy probability density distributions with the relative biological …

In 2011, the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) recommended
reducing the occupational equivalent dose limit for the lens of the eye from 150 mSv/year to 20 …

Background Survival and linear-quadratic model fitting parameters implemented in
treatment planning for targeted radionuclide therapy depend on accurate cellular dosimetry. …

Absorbed dose heterogeneity in kidney tissues is an important issue in radiopharmaceutical
therapy. The effect of absorbed dose heterogeneity in nephrotoxicity is, however, not fully …

Purpose: Four different practical methodologies of quantifying scattered radiation for two
different digital mammographic systems are compared. The study considered both grid in and …

Objective. Treatment planning based on computer simulations was proposed to account for
the increased relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of proton radiotherapy beams near to …

Particle therapy can largely benefit from the detailed and wide-range spectrometric and
directional characterization of energetic charged particles provided by compact Timepix detectors…
