Abstract (EN)

In this study, a shielding software was developed in order to use in radiation shielding calculations of radioisotopes used in the Nuclear Medicine Departments of Hospitals in our country. Utilizing the software, it is aimed to easily calculate the thickness of concrete or lead shielding materials planned to be used in the areas where shielding is planned in Nuclear Medicine Departments. C Sharp (C #) programing language is used for software. The results obtained from the developed software were compared with the calculations made with mathematical formulas and their correctness was checked. Sample calculations were performed to determine the parameters need to be used in the software for different radionuclides and shielding materials by using the Monte Carlo method.
