Characterization of a new radiochromic film (LD-V1) using mammographic beam qualities

open access: yesZeitschrift für Medizinische Physik
Purpose: Radiochromic film (RCF) is a detector that can obtain a two-dimensional dose distribution with high resolution; it is widely used in medical and industrial fields. Several types of RCFs exist based on their application.

Use of XR-QA2 radiochromic films for quantitative imaging of a synchrotron radiation beam [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This work investigates the use of XR-QA2 radiochromic films for quantitative imaging of a synchrotron radiation (SR) beam. Pieces (200 7 30 mm2) of XR-QA2 film were irradiated in a plane transverse to the beam axis, at the SYRMEP beamline at ELETTRA ...

Two Central Nervous System Tumors in One Catheter Lab: Time to Rethink Radiation Protection

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Very little research has been done on the possible effects that repeated, frequent, and low‐dose ionizing radiation exposure has on the long‐term health of interventional cardiologists. Aims Following the diagnosis in the same year of two central nervous system tumors in two operators working in the same catheter laboratory, we ...

Patient Dose Optimisation of Abdominopelvic Protocols During X‐Ray Imaging

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study evaluates organ doses in abdominopelvic radiography for both erect and supine positions, addressing dose optimisation concerns in Ghana. Using CalDose X and thermoluminescence dosimeters, organ doses and image quality were analysed, revealing significant dose reductions with optimised exposure parameters (70 kVp, 10 mAs, 110 cm FDD).
