The metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) can be used as a dosimeter. It is robust, lightweight, cost-effective, able to operate in real time with and without external bias, also has very small sensitive volume. Therefore, it particularly suitable for vivo dosimetry modern radiation therapy patient dosimeter diagnostic radiology. MOSFET sensitivity ionizing tailored specific application or dose range. This done by fabricating the radiation-sensitive volume of different...
Alpha particle therapy, such as diffusing alpha-emitters radiation therapy (DaRT) and targeted alpha-particle (TAT), exploits the short range high linear energy transfer (LET) of alpha particles to destroy cancer cells locally with minimal damage surrounding healthy cells. Dosimetry for DaRT TAT is challenging, their sources produce mixed fields <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$\alpha $...
Abstract Diffusing alpha-emitters radiation therapy (DaRT) is a revolutionary brachytherapy technique used to treat solid tumours. Implant seeds are coated with 224 Ra which, along its shortlived daughter atoms, emits alpha particles of high linear energy transfer (LET) and relative biological efficiency (RBE), creating tumour-killing dose distribution few mm wide. Those between 5.67 8.78 MeV. DaRT under investigation in clinical trials, but there currently no obvious solution for dosimetry...
