The measurement of dose distributions in clinical brachytherapy, for the purpose of quality control, commissioning or dosimetric audit, is challenging and requires development. Radiochromic film dosimetry with a commercial flatbed scanner may be suitable, but careful methodologies are required to control various sources of uncertainty. Triple-channel dosimetry has recently been utilized in exte...

Background All randomised phase 3 studies of selective internal radiation therapy for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma published to date have reported negative results. However, these did not use personalised dosimetry. We aimed compare the efficacy a versus standard dosimetry approach with yttrium-90-loaded glass microspheres in patients carcinoma. Methods DOSISPHERE-01 was randomised, multic...

BACKGROUND Quantitative biodistribution, venous blood and excretion data have been obtained following the intravenous bolus injection of AH113804 (18F) Injection in six healthy volunteers (HVs), four males and two females, up to approximately 5 h post-injection. For each subject, key organs and tissues were delineated and analytical fits were made to the image data as functions of time to yield...

Objective: Different categories are available for estimating of radiation dose. Radioisotopes with the same energy and almost the same physical properties have similar effects. Monte Carlo technique is a computerized method based on mathematical simulation of physical processes. The main purpose of this study is to show that beta particles are not able to penetrate deep into the water. also dif...

The paper is devoted to review of development and application of EPR dosimetry with teeth in Ukraine. It deals with specific features of the EPR dosimetry protocol, which was developed and is practically used in SCRM for retrospective dosimetry of clean-up workers (liquidators). Extensive methodological research was conducted in SCRM in order to develop an original version of EPR dosimetric pro...
