Organ dose reconstruction applicable for a Japanese nuclear worker cohort; J-EPISODE

Furuta, Hiroshige*; Sato, Kaoru; Nishide, Akemi*; Kudo, Shinichi*; Saigusa, Shin*

Health Physics, 121(5), p.471 - 483, 2021/11

 Times Cited Count:3 Percentile:31.52(Environmental Sciences)

Low dose radiation induced "health effects" containing cancer risk for a Japanese radiation worker cohort is epidemiologically evaluated using the personal dose equivalent (Hp(10)). On the other hand, Hp(10) is not recommended for epidemiological evaluation of cancer risks, since the Hp(10) is widely used for radiological protection purposes. In addition, the cancer risk depends on organ doses rather than Hp(10). Thus, we developed a new method for estimating organ doses from Hp(10) of radiation workers. The developed method enables epidemiological analysis against Japanese radiation workers by considering the response characteristics of personal dosimeters, exposure geometry and energy, and body size of radiation workers in Japan. In the future, we will reconstruct organ dose conversion factor and will evaluate the risk of cancer mortality and morbidity using the organ dose in Japan.

Overview of environmental impact assessment studies on radioactive contamination after the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident

Iijima, Kazuki; Hayashi, Seiji*; Tamaoki, Masanori*

Global Environmental Research (Internet), 24(2), p.85 - 93, 2021/06

Environmental radioactive contamination by the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident has clearly been declining during the passage of almost 10 years from the accident. However, the prolongation of radioactive contamination in natural ecosystems probably derived from forested area without decontamination is pointed out by many studies, so more detailed examination will be needed for environmental dynamics of bioavailable radiocesium and its transfer to ecosystems. Also for influence of radiation to organisms, effects of evacuation on wild organisms are more pronounced than direct effect from radiation, especially in Fukushima evacuation area.

Observation of morphological abnormalities in silkworm pupae after feeding $$^{137}$$CsCl-supplemented diet to evaluate the effects of low dose-rate exposure

Tanaka, Sota; Kinouchi, Tadatoshi*; Fujii, Tsuguru*; Imanaka, Tetsuji*; Takahashi, Tomoyuki*; Fukutani, Satoshi*; Maki, Daisuke*; Notomi, Akihiro*; Takahashi, Sentaro*

Since the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) accident, morphological abnormalities of the lepidopteran insects have been reported. However, it is unclear whether the abnormalities were caused directly by radiation because they did not study on absorbed dose and dose-effect relationship. In this study, we conducted an internal exposure experiment on silkworm using $$^{137}$$CsCl-supplemented artificial diet and estimated the absorbed dose to evaluate the morphological abnormalities in silkworm. The ratio of wing to whole body of pupae was compared between the $$^{137}$$CsCl-exposured and control groups and no significant differences were observed between the groups. This result suggest that morphological abnormalities in lepidopterans are unlikely due to direct radiation effects from $$^{137}$$Cs contamination after the FDNPP accident.

Estimation method for corrosion rate of carbon steel in water with $$gamma$$-ray irradiated condition

Yamamoto, Masahiro; Sato, Tomonori; Komatsu, Atsushi; Nakano, Junichi; Ueno, Fumiyoshi

Proceedings of European Corrosion Congress 2015 (EUROCORR 2015) (USB Flash Drive), 7 Pages, 2015/09

In Fukushima-Daiichi Nuclear Power Station, decommissioning procedures are continuing and it will take more than 30 years. As some structures are made of carbon steel, degradation by corrosion is large problem for structural reliability. To clarify an irradiation effect for corrosion of carbon steel, corrosion test was con-ducted in $$^{60}$$Co $$gamma$$-ray irradiated condition. Corrosion test results showed that corrosion rates of $$gamma$$-ray irradiated condition increased with $$gamma$$-ray dose rates. The oxidant concentrations were also increased with $$gamma$$-ray dose rate. From these results, a new estimation method for corrosion rate of carbon steel in water with $$gamma$$-ray irradiated condition using radiolysis calculation is introduced and discussed.

Development of HEINPUT-GUI ver. 2.0 for estimating the late somatic and genetic effects induced by radiation exposure

JAEA-Data-Code-2015-001.pdf:10.74MB

HEINPUT code is one of the preprocessor for probabilistic accident consequence assessment code OSCAAR, and estimates the risk of incidence and death due to radiation induced cancers. HEINPUT code currently uses two models developed by U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC, 1985; 1993) and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA, 1994). In this report, the code was improved to enable to make calculation using the new EPA model. In addition, in order to reduce user's burden, we developed input data generator which can provide the input data for three estimation models implemented in HEINPUT-GUI based on the statistical information published.

Approach of machine-learning-based visualization for the evaluation of fuzzy effects of low-dose radiation

Kanzaki, Norie; Sakoda, Akihiro; Kataoka, Takahiro*; Yamaoka, Kiyonori*

no journal, , 

It is not easy to evaluate fuzzy effects of low-dose radiation by basic statistical analysis or basic machine learning. In the present study, the modification of self-organizing maps, which is a kind of machine learning, was made for the evaluation of such effects: namely many reference vectors which learned input dataset by self-organizing maps were reanalyzed with the same technique. Based on this procedure, we analyzed a dataset about low-dose radiation as well as a benchmark dataset, suggesting that the modified self-organizing maps can work even for input data with complex topology and data distribution.

Although mutation frequency depends on organ cell types and differentiation level, it is not fully understood that organ cell types dependent mutation frequency in human cells. In this study, we aimed to establish measurement system of radiation dependent mutation frequency for analyze radiation effect to the human body. For this purpose, we derived four different organ cells such as neural cells, skin keratinocytes, heart muscle cells and blood cells from hiPSCs. Further, using artificial intelligence technology and machine leaning method, we w analyzed differences of mutation frequency during samples.

Yamamoto, Masahiro

no journal, , 

The nuclear science and engineering center is engaged in corrosion problems derived from the decommissioning procedures at Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station. Our viewpoints are effects of irradiation from radioactive materials into cooling water. Some experiments were conducted at $$gamma$$-ray irradiation facilities in Takasaki Advanced Radiation Research Institute. This report introduces several results in these experiments and also the future research issues.
