EVALUATION OF THE EFFECT OF DIFFERENT NANOPARTICLES ON THE MASS ATTENUATION COEFFICIENT OF A SHIELD IN DIAGNOSTIC RADIOLOGY: A MONTE CARLO STUDY

Evaluation of the Effect of Different Nanoparticles on the Mass Attenuation Coefficient of a Shield in Diagnostic Radiology: A Monte Carlo Study

Purpose: This research aimed to estimate the Mass Attenuation Coefficient (MAC) for the various nanoparticles in diagnostic imaging in order to assess and compare the changes in a bulk state.Materials and Methods: To Using Monte Carlo N-Particle eXtended (MCNPX) code, nanoparticles were simulated in the target in order to compute the MAC considerin

Mechanically-induced osteogenesis in the cortical bone of pre- to peripubertal stage and peri- to postpubertal stage mice

Abstract Background Exercise during postnatal development plays a key role in determining adult bone mass and reducing the risk of fracture and osteoporosis later in life.However, the relationship between mechanically-induced osteogenesis and age is unclear.Elevated levels of estrogen during puberty may inhibit periosteal bone formation.Thus, magni
