Evaluation of the Effects of Inhomogeneities on Dose Profiles Using Polymer Gel Dosimeter and Monte Carlo Simulation in Gamma Knife
Introduction Polymer gel dosimeters offer a practical solution to 3D dose verification for conventional radiotherapy as well as intensity-modulated and stereotactic radiotherapy. In this study, EGSnrc calculated and PAGAT polymer gel dosimeter measured dose profiles from single shot irradiation with 18 mm collimator of Gamma Knife in homogeneous and inhomogeneous phantoms were compared with eac...
متن کاملNursing perspective of gamma knife of treatment
Gamma knife is a new noninvasive method for treatment of patient with brain tumors. ‎Another name of this procedure is steriotatic radiosurgery.‎‏ ‏This computerized advanced ‎technique was implicated by a team including neurosurgeon, neuroradialogist, oncologist, and ‎a nurse. This method is used for treatment of certain brain tumors and lesions. The benefits are ‎l...
متن کاملUse of light source for testing thermoluminescent dosimeter readers.
It is a common practice to check the performance of a TLD reader by inserting a light source composed of a phosphor mixed with a radioactive material, e.g., 14C . The response to the light source is used as a measure of a) the calibration or long-term stability of the reader and b) the ability of the reader to reproduce a constant signal. Usually the laboratory which measures a wide range of do...
متن کاملA search for novel thermoluminescent radiation dosimeter media.
We describe two example pilot efforts to help define new thermoluminescent dosimeter media. The first concerns ZnS:Mn nanophosphors, prepared by chemical precipitation using zinc and sodium sulfate, doped with manganese sulfate at concentrations varying from 1 to 3mol. The second concerns chemical vapor deposited diamond, produced as a thin film or as amorphous carbon on a single-crystal silico...
متن کاملSintered Al2O3 based Materials for Radiotherapy Thermoluminescent Dosimeter Applications
INTRODUCTION The thermoluminescent (TL) properties of various materials have been studied since a long time but many of these developments never reach the thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) users. α-Al2O3:C TL detectors were first developed and produced at Urals Polytechnical Institute ( UPI ) (1) in the form of a single crystal. These TLD ( model 2600 – 80 ) are now supplied by Victoreen to man...
