  1. 1. Polymer gel dosimetry with MRI-readout for 3D dose verification - detector characteristics and clinical applications

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Författare :Thi Guldhill; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Background & Purpose: Radiation therapy is an essential treatment for cancer patients with the ultimate goal to deliver radiation doses to the tumour with precision while minimizing exposure to surrounding healthy tissues. Treatment verification is crucial to ensure the accuracy of radiation delivery, for instance by measuring the radiation dose distribution. LÄS MER

  2. 2. CHARACTERIZATION AND EVALUATION OF A NIPAM POLYMER GEL MRI DOSIMETER SYSTEM

    Master-uppsats,

    Författare :Christian Waldenberg; [2022-11-08]
    Nyckelord :Medical physics; Normoxic polymer gel dosimeter; NiPAM;

    Sammanfattning : Purpose: The normoxic polymer gel dosimeter based on N-isopropyl acrylamide (NiPAM) is a promising full 3D-dosimeter with high spatial resolution and near tissue equivalency. However, limited work have been done in vestigating this dosimeter. The dose response and reproducibility of a NiPAM dosimeter was investigated. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Polymer gel dosimetry - Using MRI-readout, simplified relatively non-toxic mixing procedure tested on FLASH

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Författare :Maria Blomstedt; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Background: One of the polymer gel dosimeters available today is the N-isopropylamide (NIPAM) polymer gel dosimeter which has a less toxic monomer compared to other polymer gels and the advantage of being able to be manufactured under normal oxygen levels. Polymer gel dosimeters in general are advantageous independent dosimeters to use for verification of new radiation treatment techniques due to its favorable qualities such as very high resolution, 3D coverage, tissue equivalence and independence of energy and incident direction of the radiation beam.

  4. 4. Environmental radiation measurements at Barsebäck nuclear power plant during the decommissioning phase

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Författare :Patrik Dahlström; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Background and aim: The Barsebäck nuclear power plant (NPP) units ceased operations in 1999 and 2005. Now the NPP is in the phase of decommissioning, which is a complicated process that will take many years to complete. Radiological characterization of the surrounding area is a part of the decommissioning process. LÄS MER

  5. 5. A comparison between LiF, Al2O3 and NaCl pellets for luminescence dosimetry based on clinical and laboratory measurements

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Författare :Edita Solak; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Radiation protection is of importance for the general public, patients and personnel in many different situations: rare accidents involving ionizing radiation, medical examinations or work tasks in the medical clinic or nuclear industry to name a few. Optimization in radiation protection and limitation of radiation doses are essential to prevent overexposure and for reducing negative health consequences. LÄS MER
