Partial Quality Assessment of 60Co-Teletherapy Machine Performance
The aim of this study was to assess the performance of 60Co-teletherapy unit at Radiation and Isotopes Center in Khartoum, using the common tools used for quality control (Front pointer, Graphic paper, Pin, Non-screen film, meter and Check plate). The collected and analyzed data revealed that: there was a difference between the calculated theoretical field size (FS) and the measured one relativ...
متن کاملUncertainty analysis of absorbed dose calculations from thermoluminescence dosimeters.
Thermoluminescence dosimeters (TLD) are widely used to verify absorbed doses delivered from radiation therapy beams. Specifically, they are used by the Radiological Physics Center for mailed dosimetry for verification of therapy machine output. The effects of the random experimental uncertainties of various factors on dose calculations from TLD signals are examined, including: fading, dose resp...
متن کاملA Validation Study on Radiation properties of a Novel LiF: Mg, Ti Known as IAP-100
Introduction: LiF dosimeter has the most application in medicine. This study aimed to evaluate some dosimetric properties of a novel LiF: Mg, Ti. Materials and Methods: An ELEKTA Precise linear accelerator was used to calibrate dosimeters at 6 MV. In this survey, responses of dosimeters were evaluated up to 1000 cGy. Background effect was investigated in two different dosimeter states includin...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Entrance Skin Dose in Animals Undergoing Diagnostic Radiology Using LiF, Mg, Ti Thermoluminescence Dosimetry (TLD-100)
Introduction According to the International Commission on Radiological Protection publication numbers 60 and 21, the environmental control standards should ensure human and other species protection to a desirable degree. Since application of radiographic procedures in Veterinary Medicine has increased significantly, in this study, we aimed to evaluate the entrance skin dose to the animals (e.g....
متن کاملCalculation of Correction Factors for Dosimeters Thermoluminescent of Lithium Fluoride (LiF-100) for Use in 6MV Photon Beams
Since the beginning of its use, radiation has already presented harm, justifying the necessity of controlled use. In order to monitor its effects and even avoid them, dosimetry has arisen. For the purpose of ensured all the necessary safety and monitor areas where there is radiation use, a lot of devices able to identify and quantify many types of radiation were developed. However, some these d...
