The Importance of absorbed dose in medical applications

Authors

Abstract:

Radiation damage depends on energy absorption, and is approximately proportional to the absorbed energy density in the tissue. In external radiation consideration with a certain energy flux, the amount of absorbed dose in each point of the tissue depends on the type of radiation, the radiation energy, the depth of the place of receipt, and the main components of the absorber environment. The absorbed energy in tissue is important in radiotherapy. This issue is well known for ionizing radiation such as X and Gamma, and is implemented in therapeutic protocols. But less attention is paid to laser therapy. Due to the actual risks of laser use, dosimeters in laser therapy are very important, in addition to observing the permissible radiation limits, in terms of radiation protection, radiation dose is required to achieve the desired effect from the requirements of this laser application in medicine.

Absorbed dose to water reference dosimetry using solid phantoms in the context of absorbed-dose protocols.

For reasons of phantom material reproducibility, the absorbed dose protocols of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) (TG-51) and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) (TRS-398) have made the use of liquid water as a phantom material for reference dosimetry mandatory. In this work we provide a formal framework for the measurement of absorbed dose to water using ioniz...

Effectiveness of the Medical Emergency Team: the importance of dose

Up to 17% of hospital admissions are complicated by serious adverse events unrelated to the patients presenting medical condition. Rapid Response Teams (RRTs) review patients during early phase of deterioration to reduce patient morbidity and mortality. However, reports of the efficacy of these teams are varied. The aims of this article were to explore the concept of RRT dose, to assess whether...

The Investigation of Absorbed Dose in Gastroesophageal Reflax Imaging Procedure in Children and Neonates

Introduction: Nuclear medicine techniques have been widely employed in the assessment of gastroesophageal dysfunction. Gastroesophageal reflux (GER) is a common, self-limited process in infants and children that usually resolves at 12 to 18 months of age. Clinical management of GER includes conservative treatment, thickened feedings, positional therapy and parental reassurance. On the other han...
