There is a long history of absorbed dose calculations being performed to evaluate the risks involved in the application of radiopharmaceuticals to medical studies. In the 1940s, Marinelli, Quimby, and Hine (1–3) published a set of articles that presented a summary and approach to radionuclide dosimetry. In 1956 Loevinger et al. (4) summarized the field at that point, and then in 1968 the newly ...
Background & Aim: Nowadays, radiosensitive polymer gels are used as a reliable dosimetry tool for verification of 3D dose distributions. Polymer gel dosimeters consist of an aqueous mixture of monomers and a gelling agent, which after irradiation, 3D dose distribution is acquired by using imaging techniques. The aim of this study is to evaluate the application and capability of normoxic polym...
The current focus on networking and mutual assistance in the management of radiation accidents or incidents has demonstrated the importance of a joined-up approach in physical and biological dosimetry. To this end, the European Radiation Dosimetry Working Group 10 on 'Retrospective Dosimetry' has been set up by individuals from a wide range of disciplines across Europe. Here, established and em...
Dosimetry based on the detection by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy of ionizing radiation-induced radicals is an established method for the retrospective dosimetry of past exposures and the dosimetry of potentially exposed persons in radiological emergencies. The dose is estimated by measuring the physical damage induced in materials contained in objects placed on or next to ...
Three-dimensional (3D) gel dosimetry has a unique role to play in safeguarding conformal radiotherapy treatments as the technique can cover the full treatment chain and provides the radiation oncologist with the integrated dose distribution in 3D. It can also be applied to benchmark new treatment strategies such as image guided and tracking radiotherapy techniques. A major obstacle that has hin...
Since the introduction of volumetric chemical dosimetry with Fricke gel dosimeters in the 1980s, three-dimensional (3D) dosimetry has been a promising technique for the clinic, since it provides a unique methodology for 3D dose measurement of the complex conformal dose distributions achieved by modern techniques such as Intensity Modulated and Volumetric Arc Radiation Therapy. In the last decad...
High dose rate brachytherapy (HDR) using 192Ir sources is well accepted as an important treatment option and thus requires an accurate dosimetry standard. However, a dosimetry standard for the direct measurement of the absolute dose to water for this particular source type is currently not available. An improved standard for the absorbed dose to water based on Fricke dosimetry of HDR 192Ir brac...
Routine internal dose exposures are typically (in the UK nuclear industry) less than external dose exposures: however, the costs of internal dosimetry monitoring programmes can be significantly greater than those for external dosimetry. For this reason decisions on when to apply routine monitoring programmes, and the nature of these programmes, can be more critical than for external dosimetry p...
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of the Dosimetry Check system for patient-specific IMRT QA. Typical QA methods measure the dose in an array dosimeter surrounded by homogenous medium for which the treatment plan has been recomputed. With the Dosimetry Check system, fluence measurements acquired on a portal dosimeter is applied to the patient's CT scans. Instead of making dose co...
introduction: during radiotherapy, high accuracy in the dose delivery is required because there is a strong relationship between the absorbed dose, local tumor control and particularly the normal tissue damage. in many institutions, in vivo dosimetry using diodes is performed to check the actual dose delivered. in general, the uncertainty in the dose delivered should fall within ± 5% of the...
