High-Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) is widely employed in the diagnosis of lung diseases, demonstrating a sensitivity of 95% and a specificity of 85%. Chest CT is frequently used for the diagnosis and monitoring of disease progression, outcomes, and treatment effectiveness. CT is associated with radiogenic risks, which refer to the potential risk of developing cancer due to exposure to...
This study examines the effects of X-ray radiation on DNA and platinated DNA complexes in the presence of AgTOEPyP4 porphyrin. We investigated varying relative concentrations of porphyrin-DNA complexes (r = 0.01, 0.02, 0.04, where r = Cporf/CDNA) and conducted a comparative analysis with platinated DNA complexes (r = 0.025, where r = cis-Pt/CDNA) at a radiation dose of 2 Gy. This approach...
Area monitoring, including environmental and workplace radiation surveillance, is essential in settings with significant radiation exposure such as nuclear reactors, accelerator facilities, contaminated waste sites, and NORM-affected zones in the oil and gas industry. Photon energies in these environments typically range from 20–30 keV to several MeV, requiring dosimetry systems whose response...
