研究目的
To evaluate the fundamental characteristics of a novel real-time skin dosimeter (RTSD) and compare the performance of new and old radiation sensors with existing sensors in interventional radiology.
研究成果
The RTSD system developed is useful as a real-time multi-channel radiation monitor during IR procedures. The new sensor had marginal influence on X-ray images and high-quality fundamental characteristics, although it demonstrated low sensitivity to irradiation from the side and back. The newly developed RTSD system can be recommended for visualization and management of skin radiation exposure in patients undergoing IR procedures.
研究不足
Data were analyzed from only a phantom study. The newly developed RTSD sensor should be applied in a clinical setting for further evaluation. Reverse sensitivity of the new RTSD should be improved.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study evaluated the fundamental characteristics of the RTSD based on energy, dose, dose rate, and angular dependence. For comparison, RTSD-new and -old sensors, skin dose monitor (SDM), and a 6-ml thimble-type ion chamber were used.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The X-ray equipment used for irradiation were the UD-150 and Infinix Celeve-i.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment included RTSD-new and -old sensors, SDM, ion chamber (model 9015), UD-150, and Infinix Celeve-i.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Measurements were taken under various conditions to evaluate energy, dose, dose rate, and angular dependence.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Data were analyzed by comparing measurements from the RTSD-new, -old, and SDM with ion chamber reference values.
