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.

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
