Gamma Radiation Dosimetry Using Tellurium Dioxide
Thin films of Tellurium dioxide (TeO2) were investigated for γ-radiation dosimetry purposes. Samples were fabricated using thin film vapour deposition technique. Thin films of TeO2 were exposed to a 60Co γ-radiation source at a dose rate of 6 Gy/min at room temperature. Absorption spectra for TeO2 films were recorded and the values of the optical band gap and energies of the localized states fo...
متن کاملRadiation dosimetry in the Leksell Gamma Knife treatment room
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 ...
متن کاملThree dimensional radiation dosimetry using polymer gels
The use of polymer gels to record radiation dose distributions in three dimensions was first proposed in 1992 as a proof-of-principle [1]. The accuracy of these early polymer gel dosimeters and scanning methods was not sufficient for most clinical applications [2]. Since then, several efforts were made to increase the accuracy and precision of both the physical gel dosimeter and the scanning te...
متن کاملRadiation dosimetry.
This article summarizes the basic facts about the measurement of ionizing radiation, usually referred to as radiation dosimetry. The article defines the common radiation quantities and units; gives typical levels of natural radiation and medical exposures; and describes the most important biological effects of radiation and the methods used to measure radiation. Finally, a proposal is made for ...
متن کاملExperimental investigation of dosimetry response of nanocomposite of polystyrene-multiwall carbon nanotube in gamma radiation field
Recently, polymeric nanocomposites have been used as real-time detectors and dosimeters of gamma radiation. In this experimental work, multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) were dispersed in polystyrene (PS) martix with a weight percentage of 0.05 wt%. SEM images confirmed the appropriate and uniform distribution of carbon nanotubes in the polymer matrix. The dark current and photocurrent of the ...
