Book Standards  Applications and Quality Assurance in Medical Radiation Dosimetry  IDOS

Download or read book Standards Applications and Quality Assurance in Medical Radiation Dosimetry IDOS written by and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This publication presents the proceedings of an international symposium on standards, applications and quality assurance in medical radiation dosimetry. It includes a selection of peer reviewed papers that were presented at the symposium. The symposium provided a forum for physicists and scientists of medical institutions, research centres and standards laboratories to discuss advances in radiation dosimetry made during the past decade and to exchange scientific knowledge. The topical sessions included all specialties in radiation medicine (radiation oncology, nuclear medicine and diagnostic radiology) and radiation protection dosimetry, with a specific focus on those areas where the standardization of dosimetry has improved in recent years (brachytherapy, diagnostic radiology and nuclear medicine). One session was exclusively devoted to the challenging issues of dosimetry in small and non-standard radiotherapy beams. The publication summarizes the present status and outlines future trends in medical radiation dosimetry, and also identifies possible areas for improvement."--Provided by publisher

Book Advanced Radiation Protection Dosimetry

Download or read book Advanced Radiation Protection Dosimetry written by Nolan E. Hertel and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019 with total page 750 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first attempt in over 40 years to address the topic of radiation protection dosimetry in intimate detail. Although many radiation protection scientists and engineers use dose coefficients computed from the methodologies presented, few know the origin of those dose coefficients. The book covers all methods used in radiation protection dosimetry and will be of benefit to the radiation protection community and to graduate radiation protection programs. The book is intended for use by senior radiation protection scientists and in graduate health physics and medical physics courses. Topics include advanced external and internal radiation dosimetry concepts and regulatory applications.

Book Fourth Conference on Radiation Protection and Dosimetry

Download or read book Fourth Conference on Radiation Protection and Dosimetry written by and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Conference is the fourth in a series of conferences organized by staff members of Oak Ridge National Laboratory in an effort to improve communication in the field of radiation protection and dosimetry. Scientists, regulators, managers, professionals, technologists, and vendors from the United States and countries around the world have taken advantage of this opportunity to meet with their contemporaries and peers in order to exchange information and ideas. The program includes over 100 papers in 9 sessions, plus an additional session for works in progress. Papers are presented in external dosimetry, internal dosimetry, radiation protection programs and assessments, developments in instrumentation and materials, environmental and medical applications, and on topics related to standards, accreditation, and calibration. Individual papers are indexed separately on EDB.

Book Radiation Protection in Medical Physics

Download or read book Radiation Protection in Medical Physics written by Yves Lemoigne and published by Springer. This book was released on 2010-12-07 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the fundamental aspects of Radiation Protection in Medical Physics and covers three main themes: General Radiation Protection Principles; Radiobiology Principles; Radiation Protection in Hospital Medical Physics. Each of these topics is developed by analysing the underlying physics principles and their implementation, quality and safety aspects, clinical performance and recent advances in the field. Some issues specific to the individual techniques are also treated, e.g. calculation of patient dose as well as that of workers in hospital, optimisation of equipment used, shielding design of radiation facilities, radiation in oncology such as use of brachytherapy in gynecology or interventional procedures. All topics are presented with didactical language and style, making this book an appropriate reference for students and professionals seeking a comprehensive introduction to the field as well as a reliable overview of the most recent developments.

Book Nuclear Medicine Radiation Dosimetry

Download or read book Nuclear Medicine Radiation Dosimetry written by Brian J McParland and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-07-03 with total page 633 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Complexities of the requirements for accurate radiation dosimetry evaluation in both diagnostic and therapeutic nuclear medicine (including PET) have grown over the past decade. This is due primarily to four factors: Growing consideration of accurate patient-specific treatment planning for radionuclide therapy as a means of improving the therapeutic benefit, development of more realistic anthropomorphic phantoms and their use in estimating radiation transport and dosimetry in patients, Design and use of advanced Monte Carlo algorithms in calculating the above-mentioned radiation transport and dosimetry which require the user to have a thorough understanding of the theoretical principles used in such algorithms, their appropriateness and their limitations, increasing regulatory scrutiny of the radiation dose burden borne by nuclear medicine patients in the clinic and in the development of new radiopharmaceuticals, thus requiring more accurate and robust dosimetry evaluations. An element common to all four factors is the need for precise radiation dosimetry in nuclear medicine, which is fundamental to the therapeutic success of a patient undergoing radionuclide therapy and to the safety of the patients undergoing diagnostic nuclear medicine and PET procedures. As the complexity of internal radiation dosimetry applied to diagnostic and therapeutic nuclear medicine increases, this book will provide the theoretical foundations for: enabling the practising nuclear medicine physicist to understand the dosimetry calculations being used and their limitations, allowing the research nuclear medicine physicist to critically examine the internal radiation dosimetry algorithms available and under development; and providing the developers of Monte Carlo codes for the transport of radiation resulting from internal radioactive sources with the only comprehensive and definitive.
