Silicon Carbide Detectors for in vivo Dosimetry [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 2014
Semiconductor detectors for in vivo dosimetry have served in recent years as an important part of quality assurance for radiotherapy. Silicon carbide (SiC) can represent a better semiconductor with respect to the more popular silicon (Si) thanks to its physical characteristics such as wide bandgap, high electron saturation velocity, lower effective ...

Heterogeneity of absorbed dose distribution in kidney tissues and dose–response modelling of nephrotoxicity in radiopharmaceutical therapy with beta-particle emitters: A review

open access: yesZeitschrift für Medizinische Physik
Absorbed dose heterogeneity in kidney tissues is an important issue in radiopharmaceutical therapy. The effect of absorbed dose heterogeneity in nephrotoxicity is, however, not fully understood yet, which hampers the implementation of treatment ...

Verification of the Accuracy of the Delivered Dose in Brain Tumors by in Vivo Dosimetry Using Diode Detectors [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Medical Physics, 2005
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.
