introduction: active personal dosimeters (apds) are well accepted as useful and reliable instruments for individual dosimetry measurements. apds have many advantages compared with passive dosimeters for individual external radiation dose assessments. in routine monitoring, occupational exposure is carried out for verification and demonstration of compliance with the regulatory dose limits. so, ...

The possibility to combine the track-etched CR-39 or Makrofol detectors with charcoal to increase the detector sensitivity was shown in the last years. Special requests are necessary in the case of a personal dosimeter when the detector must be active only during working activity. Regarding the combination of charcoal with TL detectors our preliminary investigations indicate that the TLD intens...

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is being rapidly integrated for cancer treatments-such systems are referred to as MRI-guided radiation therapy (MRIgRT). As the magnet of an MRI scanner is always on, the presence of a strong static magnetic field from the MRI scanner during radiotherapy delivery presents new challenges. One of the challenges is that a personal radiation dosimeter used to estima...
