1. Models for estimating radiation dose and LAR from radioactive fallout: extended dose algorithms for the computational tool LARCalc
Master-uppsats,Sammanfattning : Today, emergency preparedness is needed against both nuclear reactor accidents and nuclear weapons fallout. Both scenarios can lead to exposure of ionizing radiation. Upon exposure, radionuclides will incur a radiation dose both internally and externally. LÄS MER
2. Simulations and Measurements of radiation doses from patients treated with I-131.
Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/RadiofysikSammanfattning : The aim of this work is to introduce a couple of new exposure scenariosof interest when personnel, family members and general public are externally irradiated from patients treated with Iodine-131. A series of modied ORNL matematical phantoms were used in Monte-Carlo simulations in PENELOPE-2011 to determine dose rates to: a cab driver where thepatient sits in the back seat at opposite side, a newborn child held by an adult patient, a doctor giving treatment to a patient while leaning over the hospital bed and collective effective dose to bus passengers if the patient travels home by bus.
