Considered the issues of X-ray dose control during diagnostic and therapeutic procedures using imaging tools. The dose of X-ray radiation from the visualization devices absorbed by the biological tissue of a person was determined when monitoring the position of the patient on the therapeutic table of the electron accelerator before the radiation therapy session. The processes of transmission of photons and electrons through the medium were simulated, and the X-ray spectra were measured. The emission spectrum of the Varian G-242 Rotating Anode X-ray Tube was obtained using an XR-100-CdTe spectrometer. The absorbed dose is calculated by the Monte Carlo method. The absorbed dose in the water phantom at tube voltage up to 80 kV was 0,9–1,5 mGy.

The aim of the research is to estimate the X-ray shielding properties of different glass systems using Monte Carlo Simulation. X-ray glass is also known as radiation shielding glass. Glass provides protection against the absorption of energy radiation. The shielding layer is formed by a high concentration of lead and barium. The mass attenuation coefficient, the effective atomic number and the effective electron density are used to determine the position of gamma-ray photons in matter. Shield characterization in terms of mass attenuation coefficient (μm), transmission fraction (T), effective atomic numbers (Zeff), half-value layer (HVL) and exposure build-up. factor (EBF) of a glass system is estimated by the Monte Carlo Simulation. The random sampling and statistical analysis are computed using the monte carlo simulation. Various external factors are considered as the input parameters. The different composition of the glass will be examined using the Monte Carlo simulation and the shielding capability would be determined for the various samples.
