Thoron Lung Dosimetry
The lung dose contributed from thoron (Rn) and its progeny was usually neglected in the dose assessment because of the generally low concentrations. Recently, increased concentrations of Rn and its progeny were measured in the traditional residential dwellings in China, in dwellings in India and in other countries. The potential alpha energy concentration contributed from Rn and its decay produ...
متن کاملReference dosimetry on TomoTherapy: an addendum to the 1990 UK MV dosimetry code of practice.
The current UK code of practice for high-energy photon therapy dosimetry (Lillicrap et al 1990 Phys. Med. Biol. 35 1355-60) gives instructions for measuring absorbed dose to water under reference conditions for megavoltage photons. The reference conditions and the index used to specify beam quality require that a machine be able to set a 10 cm × 10 cm field at the point of measurement. TomoTher...
متن کاملDosimetry for audit and clinical trials: challenges and requirements
Many important dosimetry audit networks for radiotherapy have their roots in clinical trial quality assurance (QA). In both scenarios it is essential to test two issues: does the treatment plan conform with the clinical requirements and is the plan a reasonable representation of what is actually delivered to a patient throughout their course of treatment. Part of a sound quality program would b...
متن کاملFilm Badge Dosimetry Versus Luminescence Dosimetry
The field of personnel radiation monitoring is presently in a state of radical change. It appears that the unreliability of the film badge is now firmly established, bringing into question the value of much of the massive amount of personnel dosimetry data accumulated in the past three decades. This article examines the evidence "against" the film badge and reviews the comparative studies "for"...
متن کاملA system for remote dosimetry audit of 3D-CRT, IMRT and VMAT based on lithium formate dosimetry.
The aim of this work was to develop and test a remote end-to-end audit system using lithium formate EPR dosimeters. Four clinics were included in a pilot study, absorbed doses determined in the PTV agreed with TPS calculated doses within ±5% for 3D-CRT and ±7% (k=1) for IMRT/VMAT dose plans.
