THERMOLUMINESCENT DOSIMETRY
Conference
·
OSTI ID:4875872
The performance of CaF/sub 2/: Mn and LiF as thermoluminescent in vivo dosimeters is studied. The facility with which this type of dosimeter can be inserted into the body is discussed. The dosimeter is inserted into the body by trocar or catheter techniques and exposed to radiation; it is then removed and heated, and the thermoluminescence is measured and used as an indication of the absorbed dose.
