Abstract
Background: Patient safety is one of the most important components of health care quality. Given that assessing the current culture of patient safety is the first step in improving patient safety, we decided to translate and validate one of the most used patient safety culture assessment tool (HSOPS questionnaire) for the first time in Iran, and in this way take a step toward improving patient safety in our hospitals.
Materials & Methods: This cross sectional study was done among four general hospitals of Tehran University of Medical Sciences (TUMS), which were selected purposefully. Questionnaires randomly distributed among 420 members of the study population, and were collected after completion. Results were analyzed using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), internal Consistency and correlation.
Results: The value of Fitness function (FF) was 14.25 and according to that, the value of Goodness of Fit Index (GFI) was 0.96. Almost in all of the dimensions, the internal consistency of items in the translated Persian questionnaire was lower than the original one and ranged between 0.57 to 0.8.
Conclusion: Regarding to the findings of this study the Persian translation of the HSOPS questionnaire is a valid tool for the assessment of patient safety culture in Iran's hospitals.

Abstract
Background: Regarding to the escalating costs of health care and limited resources in this field, the appropriate identification and control of costs is inevitable. This Study aimed to determine the unit cost of radiology services, in selected hospitals of TUMS.
Materials & Methods: This was a descriptive retrospective study. At first, we selected two hospitals (Shariati and Sina) out of general - teaching hospitals of TUMS randomly. After gathering data, using activity based costing method, the unit costs of radiography services in these centers in 1389 fiscal year (2010-2011) were calculated.
Results: The unit costs of radiography services in Shariati and Sina hospitals were 251255,5 and 334996,2 respectively. Building rent and human resources costs included the most share of total costs.
Conclusion: The unit cost of radiography services in this study is very different comparing with other studies. Calculated building rent costs in this study could be one of the possible reasons of this difference (other studies did not consider this costs). The other point is that, regarding the high share of human resources and building costs from total costs, special attention to these sources of costs and appropriate and adequate use of them, can be an important step toward improving the efficiency and cost savings in our national health system.

Abstract
Background: Human Resources in the health sector not only is the most crucial source in health providing but account for nearly three-quarters of the health sector's costs. The purpose of this study was to estimate the required Human Resources of the CT scan department of the Reza Radiotherapy-Oncology Center based on the workload indicator of staffing needs in 2019.
Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study used human resources determination based on staffing needs' workload indicators. The method of conducting expert meetings was used to determine the components of workload and standard time. Also, Interviews and rules, and personnel systems were used to determine the amount and factors related to available working time, and to determine the annual workload, the hospital management system and observation of activity logs were used. Excel and SPSS19 software were used to analyze the data for determining the required human resources and timing data, respectively.
Results: 7 factors related to staff annually available work time were identified. The available work time for CT scans staff was 1113 hours per year. In this study, imaging and simulation were determined as the main activities of the CT scans ward. The results of the workload indicator calculations showed that the CT scan section lacked 3 Personnel.
Conclusion: This study showed that Reza Radiotherapy Oncology Center is experiencing a shortage of professional CT scan staff, and the work pressure is (0.4). Therefore, CT scans are a top priority to provide the human resource.
