Dose to the thyroid from helical chest CT can vary significantly due to the random tube start point, pitch factor, thyroid position relative to the isocenter, and beam width. We used optically stimulated luminescence dosimeters (OSLDs) and an adult a

Purpose: Optically stimulated luminescence(OSL)dosimetry has been recently introduced in radiation therapy as a potential alternative to the thermoluminescent dosimeter(TLD) system. The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of using OS

Background: Increased utilization of computed tomography (CT) scans for evaluation of blunt trauma patients has resulted in increased doses of radiation to patients. Radiation dose is relatively amplified in children secondary to body size, and child

Purpose: The ACR now requires that the CT radiation profile width be measured at all clinically used collimations. We developed a method for measuring the profile width using dosimetry alone to allow a faster and simpler measurement of beam widths. M

Purpose: As the patient table does not move during a cerebral perfusion CT study, the CTDI is not a true representation of dose to specific points in the scan volume and point dose methods are more appropriate. Our goal was to investigate the dose pr

Purpose: To investigate the effect of the helical pitch, patient size, and beam width on point dose measurements of superficial organs in MSCT. Methods: Three sizes of cylindrical PMMA phantoms were utilized; 32cm (body), 16cm (adult head), and 10cm

Purpose: To estimate thyroid dose from multi‐detector CT Head and Neck scans in an Anthropomorphic phantom using TLDs, OSLs, and the Monte Carlo‐based ImPACT software, and to compare the results to OSL doses obtained from teenage patients. Method
