Construction of anthropomorphic phantoms for use in dosimetry studies
This paper reports on the methodology and materials used to construct anthropomorphic phantoms for use in dosimetry studies, improving on methods and materials previously described by Jones et al. [Med Phys. 2006;33(9):3274-82]. To date, the methodology described has been successfully used to create a series of three different adult phantoms at the University of Florida (UF). All phantoms were ...
متن کاملAge-dependent small-animal internal radiation dosimetry.
Rats at various ages were observed to present with different radiosensitivity and bioavailability for radiotracers commonly used in preclinical research. We evaluated the effect of age-induced changes in body weight on radiation dose calculations. A series of rat models at different age periods were constructed based on the realistic four-dimensional digital rat whole-body (ROBY) computational ...
متن کاملthe use of appropriate madm model for ranking the vendors of mci equipments using fuzzy approach
abstract nowadays, the science of decision making has been paid to more attention due to the complexity of the problems of suppliers selection. as known, one of the efficient tools in economic and human resources development is the extension of communication networks in developing countries. so, the proper selection of suppliers of tc equipments is of concern very much. in this study, a ...
15 صفحه اولBreast dosimetry using high-resolution voxel phantoms.
A computer model of X-ray mammography has been developed, which uses quasi-realistic high-resolution voxel phantoms to simulate the breast. The phantoms have 400 microm voxels and simulate the three-dimensional distributions of adipose and fibro-glandular tissues, Cooper's ligaments, ducts and skin and allow the estimation of dose to individual tissues. Calculations of the incident air kerma to...
متن کاملRadiochromic film dosimetry in water phantoms.
Radiochromic film is investigated for use in dosimetry in water phantoms as opposed to solid phantoms. Investigations are performed to measure the penetration rates of water into radiochromic film and to assess the effects on optical density that this penetration causes. The effects of film orientation during irradiation in water are also tested. Results show that only a small penetration rate ...
