lif, mg and ti cubical tld chips (known as tld-100) are widely used for dosimetry purposes. the repeatability of tl dosimetry is investigated by exposing them to doses of (81, 162 and 40.5 mgy) with 662kev photons of cs-137. a group of 40 cubical tld chips was randomly selected from a batch and the values of element correction coefficient (ecc) were obtained 4 times by irradiating them to doses...

Introduction: LiF dosimeter has the most application in medicine. This study aimed to evaluate some dosimetric properties of a novel LiF: Mg, Ti. Materials and Methods: An ELEKTA Precise linear accelerator was used to calibrate dosimeters at 6 MV. In this survey, responses of dosimeters were evaluated up to 1000 cGy. Background effect was investigated in two different dosimeter states includin...

STUDY DESIGN The bone union rate after lumbar interbody fusion (LIF) using titanium (Ti) or polyetheretherketone (PEEK) cages was investigated retrospectively. OBJECTIVE To assess whether the PEEK cage is superior to the Ti cage in terms of bone union after LIF. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA We previously reported that the formation of vertebral endplate cysts is useful for predicting nonunion...

Abstract— A technique for studying the spatial structure of hybrid X-pinch plasma objects in X-ray range is described, and main experimental results are presented. The spectral characteristics sources have been measured. investigations carried out using thermoluminescent detectors based on lithium fluorides LiF(Mg, Ti).

background : sensitivity is an important dosimetric issue particularly in personal dosimetry where the range of doses is often very low to medium. in-service aging is assumed to be of negligible effect on the response of thermoluminescent dosimeters (tld), consequently, some service providers may mix fresh tlds to in-use ones and simply normalize the readings of tlds through batch calibration. ...
