Abstract:
This study aimed to investigate the effect of diabetes on radiation attenuation parameters of the femur and tibia of rats using Monte Carlo Simulations. First, control and diabetic rats were identified and tibias and femurs were removed. Then, the elemental ratios of the bones obtained were calculated using EDS (Energy Dissipative X-ray Spectroscopy). Therefore, radiation permeability properties of control and diabetic bones were simulated by using the content ratios in the bones in MCNP6 (Monte Carlo N-Particle) and PHITS (Particle and Heavy Ion Transport code System) 3.22 and Stopping and Range of Ions in Matter (SRIM) simulation codes. Attenuation coefficient results were compared with the NIST database via XCOM. Although differences in absorption coefficients are observed at low energies, these differences disappear as the energy increases.
摘要:
本研究采用蒙特卡罗模拟方法研究糖尿病对大鼠股骨和胫骨辐射衰减参数的影响。首先,确定对照和糖尿病大鼠,并切除胫骨和股骨。然后,使用EDS(能量耗散X射线光谱)计算获得的骨的元素比率。因此,通过使用MCNP6(蒙特卡罗N粒子)和PHITS(粒子和重离子传输代码系统)3.22以及物质中离子的停止和范围(SRIM)模拟代码中骨骼中的含量比,模拟了对照和糖尿病骨骼的辐射渗透性。通过XCOM将衰减系数结果与NIST数据库进行比较。尽管在低能量下观察到吸收系数的差异,这些差异随着能量的增加而消失。
