Ultraviolet radiation dosimetry with radiochromic film.
Radiochromic film is tested for its broad-band response to ultraviolet (UV) B (290-320 nm) and A (320 nm400 nm), visible and infrared radiation produced by a solar simulator and examined for dosimetry in ultraviolet radiation. Results show that MD-55-2 radiochromic film in solar and fluorescent light sources responds almost exclusively to broad-band UVA radiation with negligible colouration fro...
متن کاملThree dimensional radiochromic detection of therapeutic radiation
The global burden of cancer is increasing at an alarming rate and presents a major health challenge with 14 million new cancer cases expected to be diagnosed yearly.1 Approximately fifty percent of all cancer patients can benefit from radiation therapy in the management of their disease. Over the last decade radiation therapy has developed from simple two dimensional to four dimensional techniq...
متن کاملDose of radiation enhancement, using silver nanoparticles in a human tissue equivalent gel dosimeter.
OBJECTIVE To quantify the radiation dose enhancement in a human tissue-equivalent polymer gel impregnated with silver nanoparticles. METHODS The case-control study was conducted at the Bahawalpur Institute of Nuclear Medicine and Oncology, Bahawalpur, Pakistan, in January 2014. Silver nanoparticles used in this study were prepared by wet chemical method. Polymer gel was prepared by known quan...
متن کاملThree-dimensional radiation dosimetry using polymer gel and solid radiochromic polymer: From basics to clinical applications
Accurate dose measurement tools are needed to evaluate the radiation dose delivered to patients by using modern and sophisticated radiation therapy techniques. However, the adequate tools which enable us to directly measure the dose distributions in three-dimensional (3D) space are not commonly available. One such 3D dose measurement device is the polymer-based dosimeter, which changes the mate...
متن کاملEvaluation of solar ultraviolet radiation in Zanjan city using the ultraviolet index
Background and Objective: Monitoring the amount of ultraviolet radiation from sunlight can provide a basis for assessing people's exposure, raise public awareness and warn people against this radiation. Measuring the sun's ultraviolet index over a working period is an accurate choice to achieve this goal. Materials and Methods: In this study, the amount of solar UV index in one of the outdoor ...
