Study of entrance surface skin dose in veterinary radiology
(2009-12-01)
This study aims the evaluation of the radiation dose levels involved in veterinary radiology and to contribute to review the procedures for performing radiographic exams in animals in the Department of Veterinary Radiology ...
X-ray spectroscopy applied to radiation shielding calculation in mammography
(AMER ASSOC PHYSICISTS MEDICINE AMER INST PHYSICS, 2008)
The protective shielding design of a mammography facility requires the knowledge of the scattered radiation by the patient and image receptor components. The shape and intensity of secondary x-ray beams depend on the kVp ...
A brief review on the high-energy electromagnetic radiation-shielding materials based on polymer nanocomposites
(MDPI, 2021)
This paper revises the use of polymer nanocomposites to attenuate high-energy electromagnetic radiation (HE-EMR), such as gamma radiation. As known, high-energy radiation produces
drastic damage not only in facilities or ...
Evaluation of measurement errors of temperature and relative humidity from HOBO data logger under different conditions of exposure to solar radiation
(Springer, 2015-05-01)
This study aimed to assess measurements of temperature and relative humidity obtained with HOBO a data logger, under various conditions of exposure to solar radiation, comparing them with those obtained through the use of ...
