[The property and applications of the photovoltaic solar panel in the region of diagnostic X-ray].

In this study, the sensitivity in the diagnostic X-ray region of the single crystalline Si photovoltaic solar panel, which is expected to grow further, was measured by using an X-ray tube. The output voltage of the solar panel was clearly proportional to the tube voltage and a good time response in the irradiation time setting of the tube was measured. The factor which converts measured voltage to irradiation dose was extracted experimentally using a correction filter to investigate the ability of the solar panel as a dose monitor.

Transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells to prevent radiation-induced intestinal injury in mice.

The effective treatments of radiation-induced intestinal injury are currently unavailable. Developing new treatments for radiation-induced intestinal injury is thus important. The present study investigated whether transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is able to prevent radiation-induced intestinal injury.
