چکیده

A real-time display system has been designed and tested for use with a radiation field monitor. The system uses only pulse and waveform generators, a multiplexer, and an oscilloscope. The display consists of either a three-dimensional representation of the field intensity distribution or a series of simultaneous profiles.

Skin in vivo Dosimetry in Radiotherapy

Introduction: Due to the prevalence of skin problems in patients after radiotherapy, skin dose measuring is importance. Content: Skin in vivo dosimetry means measuring the patient's (or phantom) skin dose during radiotherapy. According to the ICRP 59, the dose at the depth of 0.07 mm is known as a skin dose. The most radiosensitive epidermis cells are located...

Experimental investigation of dosimetry response of nanocomposite of polystyrene-multiwall carbon nanotube in gamma radiation field

Recently, polymeric nanocomposites have been used as real-time detectors and dosimeters of gamma radiation. In this experimental work, multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) were dispersed in polystyrene (PS) martix with a weight percentage of 0.05 wt%. SEM images confirmed the appropriate and uniform distribution of carbon nanotubes in the polymer matrix. The dark current and photocurrent of the ...
