Development of a linear array for intracavitary in vivo dosimetry during external beam radiotherapy and brachytherapy. [PDF]
We present the details of a new linear array dosimeter consisting of a chain of semiconductors mounted on an ultra-thin (50 μm thick) flexible substrate and housed in an intracavitary catheter. The semiconductors, manufactured by NMRC Cork, have not been

Application of the Linear-Quadratic model to targeted radionuclide therapy [PDF]
PhDThe principal aim of this work was to test the hypothesis that the Linear-Quadratic (LQ) model of cell survival, developed for external beam radiotherapy (EBRT), could be extended to targeted radionuclide therapy (TRT) in order to predict dose ...

Sum-peak method with two NaI(Tl) crystals: 68(Ge+Ga) standardization
A 68(Ge+Ga) commercial solution has been standardized in LNMRI in Brazil, by sum-peak method, in which a 3”x3” NaI(Tl) gamma-ray detector is positioned at the top of a well-type 5”x5” NaI(Tl) gamma-ray detector, resulting in a set up approximately 4p ...
