Spectral Characteristics of Secondary Radiation Cisplatin for Cancer Therapy

Article Preview

Abstract:

Gamma spectrums were measured during X-ray transmission through solutions such as sodium chloride solution with increasing quintuple concentration of NaCl and cisplatin with increasing quintuple concentration of platinum. It was shown that the number of photons with an energy of 511 keV is 29.6% more in cisplatin solution with increasing quintuple concentration of platinum (5*cisplatin) than sodium chloride solution increasing quintuple concentration of NaCl. The result allows us to consider cisplatin as a possible radiomodificator for radiation therapy.
