True 3D chemical dosimetry (gels, plastics): Development and clinical role
Since the introduction of volumetric chemical dosimetry with Fricke gel dosimeters in the 1980s, three-dimensional (3D) dosimetry has been a promising technique for the clinic, since it provides a unique methodology for 3D dose measurement of the complex conformal dose distributions achieved by modern techniques such as Intensity Modulated and Volumetric Arc Radiation Therapy. In the last decad...
متن کاملWelding of Plastics: Fundamentals and New Developments
This paper provides a general introduction to welding fundamentals (section 2) followed by sections on a few selected welding processes that have had significant developments or improvements over the last few years. The processes that are discussed are friction welding (section 3), hot plate welding (section 4), ultrasonic welding (section 5), laser/IR welding (section 6), RF welding (section 7...
متن کاملFundamentals of 3D modelling and resource estimation in coal mining
The prerequisite of maintaining an efficient and safe mining operation is the proper design of a mine by considering all aspects. The first step in a coal mine design is a realistic geometrical modelling of the coal seam(s). The structural features such as faults and folding must be reliably implemented in 3D seam models. Upon having a consistent seam model, the attributes such as calorific val...
متن کاملThree dimensional radiation dosimetry using polymer gels
The use of polymer gels to record radiation dose distributions in three dimensions was first proposed in 1992 as a proof-of-principle [1]. The accuracy of these early polymer gel dosimeters and scanning methods was not sufficient for most clinical applications [2]. Since then, several efforts were made to increase the accuracy and precision of both the physical gel dosimeter and the scanning te...
متن کاملRadiation dosimetry using polymer gels: methods and applications.
New, complex radiotherapy delivery techniques require dosimeters that are able to measure complex three-dimensional dose distributions accurately and with good spatial resolution. Polymer gel is an emerging new dosimeter being applied to these challenges. The aim of this review is to present a practical overview of polymer gel dosimetry, including gel manufacture, imaging, calibration and appli...
