Radiation risks in perspective: radiation-induced cancer among cancer risks.

abstract：:To evaluate the dose distributions of an electron microbeam and to help optimization of its design, the condensed-history (CH) Monte Carlo simulation algorithm implemented in the Geant4 toolkit was selected as an alternative to the conventionally used analog algorithm. Compared to the analog algorithm, the CH algorith...

abstract：:The rare earth radionuclides 177 Lu and 153Sm were administered as single i.p. injections in NMRI mice. Lu was deposited principally (up to 60%) in the skeleton if the quantity of stable carrier was low. Increase of stable carrier enhanced deposition in the reticulo-endothelial system. Sm was preferentially deposited ...
