Determination of dose distribution of Ruthenium-106 Ophthalmic applicators

"August 2003" Bibliography: leaves 108-117. 1. Ruthenium-106 ophthalmic applicators -- 2. General principle of thermoluminescent dosimeter -- 3. Study of basic characteristics of CaSO4:Dy TLD -- 4. Measurements of COB and CCA type ruthenium-106 ophthalmic applicator dose distributions -- 5. Determination of the dose rate distribution using a MOSFET detector -- 6. Summary and conclusion. In this project, small CaSO4:Dy TLDs and a semiconductor MOSFET dosimeter were used for the determination of on-axis depth dose-rate distributions of 15-mm and 20-mm ruthenium-106 applicators in acrylic eye phantoms. The TLDs were also used to determine off-axis dose distributions.
