Preliminary Study in In Vivo CT Dosimetry Using Optically Stimulated Luminescence Detector (OSLD)
Optically stimulated luminescence nanoDot dosimeters (OSLD) have been used to measure single point dose distribution along the superior-inferior position at the surface (skin) and in depths, analogous to organ depths. A customized acrylic phantom of 46 cm length, 20 cm diameter was fabricated, and used for the experimental measurements using CT (Computed Tomography) beam. The CT dose profile al...
متن کاملExperimental Evaluation of Depth Dose by Exit Surface Diode Dosimeters for Off-Axis Wedged Fields in Radiation Therapy
Introduction Evaluation of the delivered dose of externally wedged photon beams by external diode dosimeters during the treatment process requires the estimation of exit surface dose correction factors in various wedge angles and field sizes. Materials and Methods A system of absorbed dose evaluation, using p-type diode dosimeters placed on the exit surface of a phantom, was characterized for e...
متن کاملOptically Stimulated Luminescent Dosimetry for High Dose Rate Brachytherapy
PURPOSE The objective was to determine whether optically stimulated luminescent dosimeters (OSLDs) were appropriate for in vivo measurements in high dose rate brachytherapy. In order to make this distinction, three dosimetric characteristics were tested: dose linearity, dose rate dependence, and angular dependence. The Landauer nanoDot™ OSLDs were chosen due to their popularity and their availa...
متن کاملEnergy dependence and angular dependence of an optically stimulated luminescence dosimeter in the mammography energy range
This study aimed to investigate the energy dependence and the angular dependence of commercially available optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) point dosimeters in the mammography energy range. The energy dependence was evaluated to calculate calibration factors (CFs). The half-value layer range was 0.31-0.60 mmAl (Mo/Mo 22-28 kV, Mo/Rh 28-32 kV, and W/Rh 30-34 kV at 2-kV intervals). Mo/Rh 2...
متن کاملAdvantages and Disadvantages in the Utilisation of Thermoluminescence (tl) and Optically Stimulated Luminescence (osl) for Radiation Dosimetry
Thermoluminescence is an established method for radiation dosimetry as well as retrospective dosimetry. In spite of its great success, different difficulties are associated with its application. These include anomalous fading, changes in the properties of the sample due to its heating in the readout phase, including a sensitization due to the combined effect of irradiation and heating and non-l...
