It is well known that protection from the external irradiation produced by beta emitters is simpler than the corresponding shielding of radioactive sources that emit gamma radiation. This is caused by the relatively strong absorption (i.e. ...
Contaminant deposition building shielding factors for US residential structures [0.03%]

This paper presents validated building shielding factors designed for contemporary US housing-stock under an idealized, yet realistic, exposure scenario from contaminant deposition on the roof and surrounding surfaces. The building shieldin...
A novel technique to optimise the length of a linear accelerator treatment room maze without compromising radiation protection [0.03%]
一种优化直线加速器治疗室辐射迷宫长度的新技术以保障辐射防护不被妥协

Our purpose in this study was to compare delivered radiation exposure via computed tomography dose index volume (CTDIvol) and dose length production (DLP) measurements from computed tomography (CT) examinations performed on scanners with an...
Characterizing endourologist learning curve during percutaneous nephrolithotomy: implications on occupational dose and patients [0.03%]
经皮肾镜取石术的学习曲线特征：对职业剂量和患者的影响

Jacobo Guiu-Souto et al.
In this study we have characterized the learning curve of percutaneous nephrolithotomy procedures over 301 cases for six years. Different surrogate parameters of clinical expertise have been used, such as dose area product, total procedure ...
Low radon exposure and mortality among Jouac uranium miners: an update of the French cohort (1946-2007) [0.03%]
法国乔瓦克铀矿工人群队列（1946-2007年）的后续观察：低氡暴露与死亡率
