Emerging technological bases for retrospective dosimetry [PDF]

open access: yesSTEM 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]

open access: yesJournal 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

Thermally assisted IRSL and VSL measurements of display glass from mobile phones for retrospective dosimetry

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2022
Investigations of retrospective dosimetry have shown that components of mobile phones are suitable as emergency dosimeters in case of radiological incidents. For physical dosimetry, components can be read out using optically stimulated luminescence (OSL),

A centralized hybrid model for regulatory inspection readiness in a multi-site radiation oncology system. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Appl Clin Med Phys
Abstract Background State regulatory inspections of radiation‐producing treatment equipment combine a review of quality assurance and regulatory records with direct verification of facility and safety systems. When these activities are performed entirely on‐site across multiple facilities, real‐time document retrieval can prolong visits and divert ...
