Different germanium dopant concentration and the thermoluminescence characteristics of flat Ge-doped optical fibres [PDF]
The influence of elevated germanium concentration on the thermoluminesence characteristics of a novel form of fabricated flat optical fibre was examined. All the samples were irradiated with two nominal photon energies (6 MV and 10 MV) and 1.25 MeV gamma

Experimental verification of acuros XB in the presence of lung-equivalent heterogeneities [PDF]
Acuros XB (AXB) is a deterministic algorithm that directly accounts for the effects of heterogeneities and improves the accuracy of photon dose calculations in radiotherapy. Nevertheless, the accuracy of AXB inside lung has not been yet fully examined by

Radiation induced vaporization of exoskeletal droplets as potential x‐ray acoustic contrast agents
Abstract Background In vivo dosimetry is a crucial component of ensuring accurate and safe radiation therapy (RT) delivery, but many existing techniques face challenges such as low signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR), which can limit their clinical applicability.

Dosimetric characteristics of fabricated Ge-doped silica optical fibre for small-field dosimetry
We study 3 mm long germanium-doped (Ge-doped) silica fibres for small-field dosimetry, seeking to overcome spatial resolution and charged-particle disequilibrium issues, also any associated dose deviation from that of computerised treatment plan dose ...
