Generally, doses greater than 2Gy can produce acute biological effects in humans. For this reason, to measure and record the cumulative dose, especially in radiation users, the need for a personal dosimeter has been strongly felt by the researchers. The purpose of this study is to introduce retrospective dosimetric techniques, in particular the use of nails as a natural tool for determining cum...
Background: Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), produced by gamma ray irradiation to watery solution, was used as an analytical parameter for dosimetry of cobalt-60 (60Co) radiation. Materials and Methods: Detection of the produced H2O2 was carried out using two methods: an amperometric biosensor fabricated by immobilization of anthraquinone 2-carboxylic acid modified horseradish peroxidase on glassy car...
In this study, the pure nano-structure hydroxyl apatite samples were synthesized via hydrolysis method. The powder samples were sintered at various temperatures of 500°C, 700°C and 900°C in a furnace. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) spectroscopy systems were used to characterize the synthsized samples. Comparison of the glow curves shows that the most ...
Radioiodine therapy is known as the most effective treatment of differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) to ablate remnant thyroid tissue after surgery. In patients with DTC treated with radioiodine, internal radiation dosimetry of radioiodine is useful for radiation risk assessment. The aim of this study is to describe a method to estimate the absorbed dose to the blood using medical internal ra...
Recently, polymeric nanocomposites have been used in dosimetry and detection of gamma rays, but due to their low photon absorption cross section, they exhibit a small sensitivity to gamma rays. In order to overcome this problem, metal oxide particles with a high atomic number are added to the polymer matrix. For this purpose, in this work, tungsten oxide particles (WO3) were distributed in poly...
A very pure diamond with contacts of graphite has a linear current-voltage characteristic when subjected to irradiation. The resistivity is inversely proportional to the dose rate and the sensitivity is extremely high for gamma- and X-rays and electron beams. It is concluded that diamond resistors are suitable for clinical radiation dosimetry. This conclusion is also based on earlier work in wh...
Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) dosimetry is growing in popularity and this success has encouraged the search for other dosimetric materials. Previous studies of gamma-irradiated barium dithionate (BaS(2)O(6) x 2H(2)O) have shown promise for its use as a radiation dosemeter. This work studies in greater detail several essential attributes of the system. Special attention has been directed...
Introduction: Electronic portal imaging devices (EPIDs) could potentially be useful for intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and VMAT QA. The data density, high resolution, large active area, and efficiency of the MV EPID make it an attractive option. However, EPIDs were designed as imaging devices, not dosimeters, and as a result they do not inherently measure dose in ...
The medical technology company Elekta is the manufacturer of the worldwide used Leksell Gamma Knife, LGK, an instrument specially designed for treating brain disorders. Sweden today has two LGKs treating patients, one of an older model and one newer. Both are owned by the Karolinska Hospital and placed in Stockholm. The radioactive sources of Cobalt in the machine lead to an enhanced radiation ...
