Spectra and air-kerma strength for encapsulated 192Ir sources

Medical Physics, 1999
The photon spectra in vacuum around four types of 192Ir HDR brachytherapy sources are calculated using the Monte Carlo code EGS4 and the most recent spectral information on 192Ir decay. The air-kerma strengths per unit activity are calculated based on the photon fluence around a bare 192Ir source and around each of four types of encapsulated sources ...

Development and characterization of air kerma cavity standard

Measurement, 2019
Abstract Ionization chambers are the most common detectors for precise measurements such as these required in radiation protection and radiotherapy. This paper presents the design, development and characterization of a new graphite-walled cavity ionization chamber used as a primary standard for air kerma rate for 137Cs and 60Co gamma radiation of the

Lowering air kerma to improve the CTO operator's karma

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, 2023
Key Points Along with the implementation of protection devices and procedural techniques, optimizing fluoroscopic protocols is a crucial step to reduce radiation dose to cath‐lab operators According to this retrospective study, using an ultra‐low dose fluoroscopy protocol (3.75 frames per second) is a simple, effective, and safe way to reduce radiation
