Review of retrospective dosimetry techniques for external ionising radiation exposures

open access: yesRadiation Protection Dosimetry, 2010
The current focus on networking and mutual assistance in the management of radiation accidents or incidents has demonstrated the importance of a joined-up approach in physical and biological dosimetry. To this end, the European Radiation Dosimetry Working Group 10 on 'Retrospective Dosimetry' has been set up by individuals from a wide range of ...

D.RE.A.M.: A software for uncertainties analysis in retrospective dosimetry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Accidental exposures to ionising radiations are nowadays managed with assistance from biological and physical retrospective dosimetry which are able to provide individual estimates of dose absorbed by victims. The aim of this work is to describe the development of biodosimetry analysis software within the "EURADOS Working Group 10—Retrospective ...

Development of a linear array for intracavitary in vivo dosimetry during external beam radiotherapy and brachytherapy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
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

Optically stimulated luminescence techniques in retrospective dosimetry

open access: yesRadiation Physics and Chemistry, 2001
Abstract Optically stimulated luminescence signals from natural quartz and feldspar are now used routinely in dating geological and archaeological materials. More recently they have also been employed in accident dosimetry, i.e. the retrospective assessment of doses received as a result of a nuclear accident.

Salty Crackers as Fortuitous Dosimeters: A Novel PSL Method for Rapid Radiation Triage

open access: yesFrontiers in Public Health, 2021
When a radiological and nuclear (R/N) emergency occurs, the categorization of individuals into those who are unaffected and those requiring medical intervention is a high priority.

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

open access: yesJ 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.

The Potential Use of Car Windscreens for Post-Accident Dose Reconstruction in the Periphery of Nuclear Installations

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Cars of a variety of brands are usually parked at a fixed but increasing distance in the periphery of nuclear installations. Herein we focus on the potential use of car windscreens for post-accident dose reconstruction from unplanned nuclear events and ...

Fingernail electron paramagnetic resonance dosimetry protocol for localized hand exposure accident

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2023
Exposure to ionizing radiation induces free radicals in human nails. These free radicals generate a radiation-induced signal (RIS) in electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy.

Natural dead sea salt and retrospective dosimetry [PDF]

open access: yesRadiation 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.

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

open access: yesInternational 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 ...
