A Scintillating Fiber-optic Dosimeter for Co-60 Radiotherapy
In this study, we have fabricated a scintillating fiberoptic dosimeter (SFOD) for a Co-60 radiotherapy dosimetry. The γrays generated from a Co-60 machine are measured using a SFOD and percent depth dose (PDD) curves are obtained according to the different depths of water phantom. Also, Cerenkov lights generated by the interactions of primary or secondary electrons and a plastic optical fiber a...
متن کاملCharacterization of Scintillating X-ray Optical Fiber Sensors
The paper presents a set of tests carried out in order to evaluate the design characteristics and the operating performance of a set of six X-ray extrinsic optical fiber sensors. The extrinsic sensor we developed is intended to be used as a low energy X-ray detector for monitoring radiation levels in radiotherapy, industrial applications and for personnel dosimetry. The reproducibility of the m...
متن کاملCalculation of Absorbed Glandular Dose using a FORTRAN Program Based on Monte Carlo X-ray Spectra in Mammography
Introduction: Average glandular dose calculation in mammography with Mo-Rh target-filter and dose calculation for different situations is accurate and fast. Material and Methods: In this research, first of all, x-ray spectra of a Mo target bombarded by a 28 keV electron beam with and without a Rh filter were calculated using the MCNP code. Then, we used the Sobol-Wu parameters to write a FORTRA...
متن کاملMeV X-ray imaging using plastic scintillating fiber area detectors: a simulation study.
Due to their low cost, flexibility, and convenience for long distance data transfer, plastic scintillating fibers (PSFs) have been increasingly used in building detectors or sensors for detecting various radiations and imaging. In this work, the possibility of using PSF coupled with charge-coupled devices (CCD) to build area detectors for X-ray imaging is studied using a Monte Carlo simulation....
متن کامل[Evaluation of absorbed dose-distribution in the X-ray or gamma-irradiator for blood products].
Irradiation of blood products abrogates the proliferation of lymphocytes present in cellular component, which is currently the only accepted methodology to prevent transfusion-associated graft versus host disease (TA-GVHD). A range of irradiation dose levels between 15 Gy and 50 Gy is being used, but the majority of facilities are employing 15 Gy. It should, however, be recognized that the deli...
