Use 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...
متن کاملDose Homogeneity of the Total Body Irradiation in vivo and in vitro confirmed with Thermoluminescent Dosimeter
INTRODUCTION Although radiotherapy is generally used as a local modality, it also can be used as systemic modality in number of occasions. Indications of total body irradiation (TBI) or whole body irradiation are immune suppression prior to bone marrow transplantation (immunologic diseases, aplastic anemia), eradication of malignant cells (leukemia, lymphoma and some solid tumor), and eradicati...
