Determination of Radiation Shielding Features of Polyvinyl Alcohol/Magnetite-Bismuth Oxide Composite Using Precise Computational Methods and Monte Carlo Code

Introduction: Bismuth efficiency in shielding superficial tissues in computed tomography (CT) scans has been challenged due to the imbalance between image quality and dose reduction. The aim of this study is to reduce bismuth in shields and investigate the possibility of substitution with lower atom...
