The detection and monitoring systems of low energy beta particles are of important concern in nuclear facilities and decommissioning sites. Generally, low-energy beta-rays have been measured in systems such as liquid scintillation counters and gas pr...
Functional plastic scintillators have attracted much attention for their usefulness in on-site monitoring and detection in environments. In this study, we elucidated a highly reliable and functional plastic scintillator for detection of radioactive s...
Background: The combination of platinum-containing cytostatic drugs with different radiation qualities has been studied for years. Despite their massive side effects, these drugs still belong to the therapeutic portfolio in cancer treatment. To overc...
Kazakhstan holds the global leadership position in natural uranium mining. Nonetheless, the extraction and processing of radioactive ores has the potential to induce instances of radiological contamination. This study aimed to evaluate the radiologic...
The Geant4-DNA low energy extension of the Geant4 Monte Carlo (MC) toolkit is a continuously evolving MC simulation code permitting mechanistic studies of cellular radiobiological effects. Geant4-DNA considers the physical, chemical, and biological s...
Gadolinium-159 (159Gd) is a beta emitter with appropriate energy for therapeutic application. However, this radioisotope additionally emits gamma rays, enabling the distribution of 159Gd to be detected by a gamma camera after each therapeutic adminis...
Introduction: Transarterial radioembolization (TARE) has been proven as an effective treatment for unresectable liver tumor. In this study, neutron activated, 153Sm-labeled microspheres were developed as an alternative to 90Y-labeled microspheres for...
