“…CT scans are recognised to be a high radiation dose modality among other modalities in medical imaging ( 76 , 77 ). The increase in the number of CT examinations and increased dose per capita have brought global concern over radiation protection issues as exposure to ionising radiation such as in CT could lead to radiation-induced cancer.…”

The increasing utilisation of computed tomography (CT) in the medical field has raised a greater concern regarding the radiation-induced health effects as CT imposes high radiation risks on the exposed individual. Adherence to radiation protection measures in CT as endorsed by regulatory bodies; justification, optimisation and dose limit, is essential to minimise radiation risks. Islam values every human being and Maqasid al-Shari’ah helps to protect human beings through its sacred principles which aim to fulfil human beings’ benefits (maslahah) and prevent mischief (mafsadah). Alignment of the concept of radiation protection in CT within the framework of al-Dharuriyat; protection of faith or religion (din), protection of life (nafs), protection of lineage (nasl), protection of intellect (‘aql) and protection of property (mal) is essential. This strengthens the concept and practices of radiation protection in CT among radiology personnel, particularly Muslim radiographers. The alignment provides supplementary knowledge towards the integration of knowledge fields between Islamic worldview and radiation protection in medical imaging, particularly in CT. This paper is hoped to set a benchmark for future studies on the integration of knowledge between the Islamic worldview and radiation protection in medical imaging in terms of other classifications of Maqasid al-Shari’ah; al-Hajiyat and al-Tahsiniyat.

“…In order to reduce the negative consequences of radiation, it is very important to first determine the extent of radiation exposure. Significant research efforts have been dedicated to exploring diverse approaches for assessing both natural radiation levels and artificial radiation levels such as X-rays [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16].…”

This study investigates the radiation dose to oral mucosal tissues during C-arm fluoroscopy imaging using an Alderson Rando phantom and thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLD-100) for precise measurements. The aim is to assess the potential risks for patients and healthcare personnel exposed to ionising radiation during these procedures. The Alderson Rando phantom, a human-equivalent model, was utilized to simulate radiation exposure in a controlled environment. TLD-100 dosimeters were strategically positioned in the 6th section of the phantom and exposed to radiation at intervals of 0.5, 1, 2, 4, and 8 minutes. The experiments were carried out at Hisar Hospital Intercontinental and the dosimeter readings were then evaluated at Çekmece Nuclear Research Centre. The study demonstrated that the mean radiation doses affecting the internal tissue of the oral mucosa were 0.912 mSv (0.5 minutes), 1.604 mSv (1 minute), 2.719 mSv (2 minutes), 6.763 mSv (4 minutes), and 13.811 mSv (8 minutes). The mean radiation doses affecting the lip skin tissue were 1.423 mSv (0.5 minutes), 2.435 mSv (1 minute), 5.2 mSv (2 minutes), 10.195 mSv (4 minutes), and 17.404 mSv (8 minutes). Results indicate a direct relationship between radiation dose and exposure time, with increasing doses observed at longer exposure times. This research aims to improve patient safety during C-arm scope imaging procedures by determining precise radiation dosage levels for oral mucosal tissues and addressing the lack of published reference values in the literature.

“…Thus besides other code it has been in a variety of studies in radiation fields [21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39]. In the present study, the FLUKA Monte Carlo Code is utilized to calculate the radiation shielding capacity of the HAP+ Fe2O3 samples [18,[40][41].…”

HAP (Hydroxyapatite) bio-composite has been used extensively to repair and replace bone and teeth tissues in the human body. However, because of the poor mechanical features of HAP bio-composites, significant enhancements in the strength and toughness of pure HAP have been achieved by the insertion of various alloys and materials into HAP. Accordingly, the present study evaluates the radiation shielding and mechanical features of the Fe2O3 -reinforced HAP composite as an implant for 0.0, 2.5, 5.0, and 7.5 wt.% Fe2O3. Also, the composite response in a magnetic field has been investigated. Employing FLUKA Monte Carlo Code, radiation shielding factors are obtained. In addition, the mechanical characteristics of the studied composites are evaluated using the theoretical method. Findings reveal that increasing the Fe2O3 contents in HAP bio-composite enhances the preferred samples’ radiation shielding and mechanical qualities. Furthermore, in the absence of a magnetic field, the particles' spatial map exhibits symmetric behavior along the x-axis, however, a different trend is observed in the presence of a magnetic field with a value of Bx=5 microT.
