Postal dose audits for radiotherapy centers in Latin America and the Caribbean: trends in 1969-2003.
Since 1969 the International Atomic Energy Agency and the World Health Organization (along with the Pan American Health Organization, working with countries in Latin America and the Caribbean) have operated postal dosimetry audits based on thermoluminescent dosimetry (TLD) for radiotherapy centers. The purpose of these audits is to provide an independent dosimetry check of radiation beams used ...
Accidents involving human exposure to radiation can cause severe health effects which may require extensive medical resources. Particularly in mass-casualty events, the rapid identification and classification of potentially overexposed individuals into medical treatment groups is of prime importance. For this purpose, clinical signs and symptoms and biological dosimetry methods are the two main...
A lack of suitable dosimetric quantities for application in diagnostic radiology is noted by Dr Moores. It is concluded by Dr Moores that it is not possible to adhere to the basic principles of the International Commission on Radiation Units and Measurements (ICRU) regarding patient dosimetry in diagnostic radiology due to the extremely wide variety of quantities and units employed. The conclus...
Dosimetry is the science of measuring radiation dosage. The absorbed dose of radiation is measured in a unit called “gray” (Gy). Radiation dosage measurements and ensuring they are as accurate as possible are important if the benefits of the application of nuclear technology in health care are to be harnessed. Radioactive processes and radiation are utilized in many health related technologies,...
Occupational radiation doses from interventional procedures have the potential to be relatively high. The requirement optimise these encourages use of electronic or active personal dosimeters (APDs) which are now increasingly used in hospitals. They typically tandem with a routine passive dosimetry monitoring programme, APDs for real-time readings, training purposes and when new imaging technol...
Organized by Working Group 6 “Computational Dosimetry” of the European Radiation Dosimetry (EURADOS), a group intercomparison exercises was conducted in which participants were asked to solve predefined problems computational dosimetry. The results these comparisons published series articles this virtual special issue Measurements. This paper reviews experience gained from various and highlight...
Gafchromic films are increasingly being used for dosimetry in medical and industrial applications of ionizing radiation because of their favorable characteristics such as self developing in nature, easy to handle, dose rate independent response, insensitivity to normal room lights, high resolution and insensitivity to variation in the environment conditions. The dosimetry measurements using Gaf...
Radiation dose reconstruction systems for large-scale epidemiological studies are sophisticated both in providing estimates of dose and in representing dosimetry uncertainty. For example, a computer program was used by the Hanford Thyroid Disease Study to provide 100 realizations of possible dose to study participants. The variation in realizations reflected the range of possible dose for each ...
Radiation dose calculation using models of the human anatomy has been a subject of great interest to radiation protection, medical imaging, and radiotherapy. However, early pioneers of this field did not foresee the exponential growth of research activity as observed today. This review article walks the reader through the history of the research and development in this field of study which star...
