Introduction:
Dosimetry is the measurement and control of the radiation dose received by a person or material. It is an important safety element in medicine, industry and scientific research. One of the most common types of dosimeters are dosimetric phantoms, which are physical models that simulate the human body or material that is exposed to radiation. However, these models can be expensive and difficult to use.
Description:
A phantom dosimeter (or phantom dosimeter) is a new generation of dosimetry devices that combines a radiation detector with a dosimetry phantom in one device. This approach improves the accuracy and convenience of radiation dose measurements for various applications.
The operating principle of a phantom dosimeter is as follows: a radiation detector detects radiation and transmits a signal to a dosimetric phantom, which measures the radiation dose affecting it. The measurement results are then transmitted to the display, where information about the radiation dose is displayed.
The advantages of phantom dosimeters are that they allow you to measure the radiation dose simultaneously at several points in space, which increases the accuracy of the measurement. In addition, phantom dosimeters are easier to use than traditional dosimetry devices because they do not require additional tools or equipment.
Application:
Phantom dosimeters are widely used in various fields such as medicine, industry, scientific research, etc. In medicine, they are used to measure the radiation dose patients receive during X-ray examinations or cancer treatment. In industry, phantom dosimeters are used to monitor radiation dose in workplaces, in the production of radioisotopes, or in radiation-related scientific research.
Conclusion:
Thus, phantom dosimeters represent a new and promising approach to radiation dose measurement. They combine a detector and a dosimetry phantom in one device, which improves measurement accuracy and ease of use.
Phantom dosimeters are special devices designed to measure and control radiation doses when working with ionizing radiation. Such devices are used by professional radiologists, doctors working with high-tech equipment, as well as in industry and scientific laboratories.
