Produktinformationen zu „Scintillation Dosimetry (PDF)“
This comprehensive book provides a detailed introduction to plastic scintillation dosimetry and its use in the field of radiation dosimetry. Comprised of chapters authored by leading experts in the medical physics community, the text discusses a broad range of state-of-the-art technical implementations, from point source dosimetry scaling to 3D-volumetric and 4D-scintillation dosimetry. It addresses a wide scope of clinical applications, from machine quality assurance to small-field and in vivo dosimetry. It also examines related optical techniques, such as optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) or Cerenkov luminescence.
