Use of an enhanced radiation protection system (Rampart M1128; Rampart IC) when performing PCI for STEMI patients does not delay treatment beyond what’s seen with standard lead aprons, a study ...

Abstract: High energy ionizing radiation can pose a significant risk to crew and payload of any space mission especially outside lower earth orbits. To investigate efficient radiation protection, in ...

December 3, 2025— Rampart IC, a developer of radiation shielding for interventional suites, announced new data on the reduction in radiation exposure achieved using the Rampart Guardian system, a lead ...

Editor’s note: This article is published after the passing away of Dan Hirsch. The draft manuscript was prepared by all authors. It has been lightly edited for style, length, and clarity. In May, ...

Abstract: Testing, calibration, and calibration frequency requirements for portable radiation detectors used to directly measure alpha, beta, photon, and neutron radiation are defined. Also defined ...

Objective: Radiation exposure during pregnancy poses serious risks to fetal health, including increased likelihood of miscarriage, preterm birth, congenital anomalies and developmental disorders, ...

In the cardiac catheterization lab (CCL), physicians and staff are exposed to ionizing radiation during diagnostic coronary and peripheral angiography, as well as interventional procedures. These ...

A research team from Penn State has broken a 165-year-old law of thermal radiation with unprecedented strength, setting the stage for more efficient energy harvesting, heat transfer and infrared ...

A C++ software framework for implementing machine learning models that can operate reliably in radiation environments, such as space. This framework is meant to extend fault tolerance to machine ...

The IAEA profiles women in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) to provide insight into career paths and to inspire and encourage readers, particularly women, to pursue careers in ...

A protein found in tardigrades — tiny animals less than a millimeter long — can protect mice from radiation damage. Most cancer patients undergo radiation therapy as part of their treatment, often ...
