Networking in biological and physical retrospective dosimetry in Europe and beyond. [PDF]

J Radiat Res
Abstract Ionizing radiation is of huge benefit to society; however, the risks of radiation overexposure in occupational settings or due to accidents or other incidents are of growing concern, not least due to the potential implications for exposed individuals in terms of acute high dose (e.g.

Reflections on the future developments of research in retrospective physical dosimetry

Physics Open, 2023
Electron paramagnetic resonance, thermoluminescence, and optically stimulated luminescence, with biological tissues and inert materials are well established physical methods for retrospective dosimetry in acute accidental exposures. The objective of this article is to provide a view of the questions still open, the current challenges and the needed ...

RENEB – Running the European Network of biological dosimetry and physical retrospective dosimetry [PDF]

International Journal of Radiation Biology, 2016
A European network was initiated in 2012 by 23 partners from 16 European countries with the aim to significantly increase individualized dose reconstruction in case of large-scale radiological emergency scenarios.The network was built on three complementary pillars: (1) an operational basis with seven biological and physical dosimetric assays in ready ...

Natural dead sea salt and retrospective dosimetry [PDF]

Radiation and Environmental Biophysics, 2020
Accidents resulting in widespread dispersal of radioactive materials have given rise to a need for materials that are convenient in allowing individual dose assessment. The present study examines natural Dead Sea salt adopted as a model thermoluminescence dosimetry system.

Emerging technological bases for retrospective dosimetry [PDF]

STEM CELLS, 2009
In this article we discuss examples of challenging problems in retrospective dosimetry and describe some promising solutions. The ability to make measurements by accelerator mass spectrometry and luminescence techniques promises to provide improved dosimetry for regions of Belarus, Ukraine and Russian Federation contaminated by radionuclides from the ...

Retrospective SPECT/CT dosimetry following transarterial radioembolization [PDF]

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, 2020
AbstractTransarterial radioembolization (TARE) effectively treats unresectable primary and metastatic liver tumors through intra‐arterial injection of Yttrium‐90 (90Y) beta particle emitting microspheres which implant around the tumor. Current dosimetry models are highly simplistic and there is a large need for an image‐based dosimetry post‐TARE, which

Radon retrospective dosimetry in different environments [PDF]

HNPS Proceedings, 2020
In the present study of retrospective dosimetry, measurements or Radon (222Rn) and Polonium (210Po) were performed. Radon is a radioactive gas and is concentrated in the interior of residential buildings and working places and is considered as a primary cause of lung cancer.

Comparative Evaluation of Four Stereotactic Radiosurgery Planning Approaches for Treatment of Posterior Choroidal Melanoma

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study evaluated four stereotactic radiosurgery planning approaches for posterior choroidal melanoma (CM). Analysis of thirteen CM cases resulted in a clinically meaningful reduction in dose to the brain for Brainlab Elements modulated arcs (BE) and Varian Eclipse HyperArc modulated arcs (HA) compared to Brainlab iPlan dynamic conformal arc therapy
