      1. Radiation dose associated with renal failure mortality: a potential pathway to partially explain increased cardiovascular disease mortality ...
        Michael Jacob MJ Adams, Eric J EJ Grant, ... Masazumi M Akahoshi

        Radiat Res 177(2):220-8 (2012) PMID 22149958

        We found a significant association between radiation dose and only our broadest definition of CRF among the full cohort. A quadratic dose excess relative risk model [ERR/Gy(2) = 0.091 (95% CI: 0.05, 0.198)] fit minimally better than a linear model. Within the subsample, association was also observed...
      2. Radiation dosimetry estimates of [18F]-fluoroacetate based on biodistribution data of rats.
        Jian-Ping JP Zhang, Ying-Jian YJ Zhang, ... Zhong-Yi ZY Yang

        Appl Radiat Isot 70(1):332-5 (2012) PMID 22019094

        We estimated the dosimetry of [(18)F]fluoroacetate (FAC) with the method established by MIRD based on biodistribution data of rats. We selected some important organs and computed their residence time, their absorbed doses and effective dose with the (%ID(Organ)) (human) data using OLINDA/EXM 1.1 pro...
      3. Individual doses for women undergoing screening mammography examinations in Poland in 2007.
        Ewa E Fabiszewska, Katarzyna K Jankowska, ... Witold W Skrzyński

        J Radiol Prot 31(4):467-75 (2011) PMID 22088977

        Exposure doses to women undergoing screening mammography examinations should be kept as low as reasonably achievable, but they should ensure high enough image quality for adequate diagnosis. The aim of this study was to estimate the radiation risk according to the 'European guideline...
      4. Pediatric radiopharmaceutical doses: new guidelines.
        S Ted ST Treves, Marguerite T MT Parisi, and Michael J MJ Gelfand

        Radiology 261(2):347-9 (2011) PMID 22012901

      5. Carbon fiber couch effects on skin dose for volumetric modulated arcs.
        Ivaylo B IB Mihaylov, Karl K Bzdusek, and Michael M Kaus

        Med Phys 38(5):2419-23 (2011) PMID 21776776

        The purpose of this study is to evaluate the dosimetric effect of carbon fiber couches (CFCs) on delivered skin dose as well as to explore potential venues for its minimization for volumetric modulated arc (VMAT) treatments. A carbon fiber couch (BrainLab) was incorpo...
      6. The standardized exposure index for digital radiography: an opportunity for optimization of radiation dose to the pediatric population.
        J Anthony JA Seibert ... Richard L RL Morin

        Pediatr Radiol 41(5):573-81 (2011) PMID 21491197

        The exposure index is currently a method by which digital radiography manufacturers provide feedback to the technologist regarding the estimated exposure on the detector, as a surrogate for image signal-to-noise ratio and an indirect indication of digital image quality. Unfortunately, there are as ma...
      7. How many strikes does it take till we are out?
        Thomas L TL Slovis, Keith J KJ Strauss, ... Donald P DP Frush

        Pediatr Radiol 41(5):547-8 (2011) PMID 21491195

      8. Feasibility of Tomotherapy to spare the cochlea from excessive radiation in head and neck cancer
        Nam P Nguyen, Lexie Smith-Raymond, ... Misty Ceizyk

        Oral Oncol 47(5):6 (2011) PMID 21474364

        We would like to evaluate the effectiveness of Tomotherapy for decreasing radiation dose to the cochlea in head and neck cancer patients. A retrospective review of 72 patients undergoing radiation for head and neck cancer was performed. Cochlea dose was compared between 20 patients treated with conve...
      9. [Promotive excretion of causative agents of Yusho by fermented brown rice with Aspergillus oryze in Yusho patients].
        Junya Nagayama, Takashi Todaka, ... Teruaki Iwasaki

        Fukuoka Igaku Zasshi 102(4):123-9 (2011) PMID 21706891

        We have examined whether such kinds of effect are also observed by fermented brown rice with Aspergillus oryzae (FBRA) containing 5% spirulina, which is so-called spirulina HI * GENKI, the health food and relatively rich with chlorophyll and dietary fiber, in eighteen Yusho patients. They were divid...
      10. Comparison of radiation dose and image quality of triple-rule-out computed tomography angiography between conventional helical scanning and ...
        Eric D ED Manheimer, M Robert MR Peters, ... Andrew J AJ Einstein

        Am J Cardiol 107(7):1093-8 (2011) PMID 21306693 PMCID PMC3062669

        We analyzed the radiation dose and image quality from TRO CTA performed at a single outpatient center, comparing the scans from a period during which helical scanning with electrocardiographically controlled tube current modulation was used for all patients (n = 35) and after adoption of a strategy...
