In vivo dosimetry with thermoluminescent dosimeters in external photon beam radiotherapy
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2010)
The ultimate check of the actual dose delivered to a patient in radiotherapy can only be achieved by using in vivo dosimetry. This work reports a pilot study to test the applicability of a thermoluminescent dosimetric ...
Performance of ZnSe(Te) as fiberoptic dosimetry detector
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2016-10)
Fiberoptic dosimetry (FOD) is an experimental technique suitable for in-vivo, real time dosimetry in radiotherapy treatments. FOD relies on using a small scintillator coupled to one end of a long optical fiber. The ...
Proposal of a Brazilian accreditation program for personal dosimetry using OSL
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2010)
After the development of the highly sensitive material Al(2)O(3):C, personal dosimetry using optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) has been continuously adopted in place of thermoluminescence dosimeters (TLD) by different ...
Piezo and pyroelectric radiation dosimetry
(1992-08-01)
The authors review the use of photoacoustic and pyroelectric radiation dosimeters. They compare the characteristics and results obtained with a photoacoustic radiation dosimeter (PARD) and a pyroelectric radiation dosimeter ...
The use of the U(n,f) reaction dosimetry in the determination of the lambda(f) value through fission-track techniques
(Elsevier Science BvAmsterdamHolanda, 2003)
Tomotherapy dose distribution verification using MAGIC-f polymer gel dosimetry
(AMER ASSOC PHYSICISTS MEDICINE AMER INST PHYSICSMELVILLE, 2012)
Purpose: This paper presents the application of MAGIC-f gel in a three-dimensional dose distribution measurement and its ability to accurately measure the dose distribution from a tomotherapy unit. Methods: A prostate ...
Potentialities and practical limitations of absolute neutron dosimetry using thin films of uranium and thorium applied to the fission track dating
(Elsevier B.V., 1999-06-01)
Neutron dosimetry using natural uranium and thorium thin films makes possible that mineral dating by the fission-track method can be accomplished, even when poor thermalized neutron facilities are employed. In this case, ...
Response of L-alanine and 2-methylalanine minidosimeters for K-Band (24 GHz) EPR dosimetry
(Elsevier B.V., 2007-11-01)
Minidosimeters of L-alanine and 2-methylalanine (2MA) were prepared and tested as potential candidates for small radiation field dosimetry. To quantify the free radicals created by radiation a K-Band (24 GHz) EPR spectrometer ...
OPES eye plaque brachytherapy dosimetry for two models of (103)Pd seeds
(SPRINGER, VAN GODEWIJCKSTRAAT, 2012)
Fricke and polymer gel 2D dosimetry validation using Monte Carlo simulation
(Elsevier, 2016-08)
Complexity in modern radiotherapy treatments demands advanced dosimetry systems for quality control. These systems must have several characteristics, such as high spatial resolution, tissue equivalence, three-dimensional ...
