Abstract:
A subset of solid state materials have long been used as integrating dosimeters because they store energy deposited as a result of their interactions with ionizing radiation and then, when stimulated appropriately, release a proportionate amount of visible or near-visible light. During the 1960s, thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs), for which heat is used to extract the stored dosimetric signal, began to replace the photographic film as occupational dosimeters of record and for medical dosimetry. At the end of the twentieth century, a viable optically stimulated luminescent (OSL) material was

Purpose: This study examined the construct validity (i.e., the degree to which a measurement reflects what it is intended to measure) of EMA in terms of measuring speech understanding and related listening context. Experiment 1 investigated the extent to which individuals can accurately report their speech recognitio

Abstract:
The recently made available ClearView® tetrazolium salt-based gel dosimeter, encapsulated in a vial, was tested to determine feasibility in use as an end-to-end dosimeter for stereotactic radiosurgery commissioning and quality assurance. A fabricated adaptor enabled direct attachment of the gel vial lid to a rod extension. The rod was inserted into a water-filled head phantom at the open neck location and locked into position. Once quality assurance testing of the linear accelerator was completed, a stereotactic plan was deployed. Optical scanning software enabled a direct comparison of the me

Abstract:
The rapid development of technologies in the field of radiation therapy allows us nowadays to implement precision and most clinically effective radiotherapy techniques for oncological patient’s treatment to minimize the irradiation of normal tissues and improve local tumor control. An important condition for the implementation of the justification principle is strict compliance with the requirements for the accuracy of the dose delivered. High standards of radiation treatments performed are guaranteed by the development and strict compliance with the quality assurance (QA) program in the radio

Abstract A fibre optic laser heated TLD system has been developed for use in remote in vivo, in situ dosimetry. A high power, near infrared CW semiconductor laser is used to heat TL elements at the distal end of standard optical fibres. Lengths of up to 200 m are feasible, with overall diameter as small as 1 mm. The system is multiplexed, with current capability of evaluating up to five dosemeter probes in under 30 s. with extension to larger numbers a trivial matter. The system is inherently immune to electromagnetic interference. The small mass of the TLD element ("100 µg) provides for highl

The OECD-NEA High Priority Request List (HPRL) is a point of reference to guide and stimulate the improvement of nuclear data for nuclear energy and other applications, and a tool to bridge the gap between data users and producers. The HPRL is application-driven and the requests are submitted by nuclear data users or representatives of the user’s communities. A panel of international experts reviews and monitors the requests in the framework of an Expert Group mandated by the NEA Nuclear Science Committee Working Party on International Nuclear Data Evaluation Cooperation (WPEC).

The aim of this study is to characterize the optical properties of Intralipid20% using two methods modified Kubelka-Munk model and Mie theory and to test the applicability of a modified Kubelka-Munk model with a single integrating sphere system over a wide wavelength range 470 – 725nm. Scattering coefficients which estimated by these two methods were matched and the absorption effect was observed and quantified. Finally, the imaginary part of the refractive index was estimated besides scattering, absorption and anisotropy coefficients. Full Text: PDF ReferencesB.W. Pogue, and M.S. Patterson, "

Abstract:
High-energy photons and high-energy protons are very different in the ways they interact with matter. These differences lead to distinct advantages of protons over photons for treatment of cancer. Some aspects of proton interactions with tissue that make this modality superior for treating cancer are: (i) Initially, the protons lose energy very slowly as they enter the body; this results in a low entrance dose and low doses to the normal tissues proximal to the tumor. (ii) Near the end of range, protons lose energy very rapidly and deposit all their energy over a very small volume before they

Abstract:
Inert microspheres, labeled with several radionuclides, have been developed during the last two decades for the intra-arterial treatment of liver tumors, generally called Selective Intrahepatic radiotherapy (SIRT). The aim is to embolize microspheres into the hepatic capillaries, accessible through the hepatic artery, to deliver high levels of local radiation to primary (such as hepatocarcinoma, HCC) or secondary (metastases from several primary cancers, e.g., colorectal, melanoma, neuro-endocrine tumors) liver tumors. Several types of microspheres were designed as medical devices, using diffe
