Exploration of dosimetry characteristics of PVA/MWCNT-OH nanocomposite for intraoperative electron radiotherapy
This study investigates the dosimetric properties of a Polyvinyl Alcohol/Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotube Hydroxyl (PVA/MWCNT-OH) composite intended for intraoperative electron radiotherapy (IOeRT). A dosimeter was fabricated using a 0.02 wt% MWCNT-OH nanocomposite, featuring a thickness of 2 mm and a diameter of 2 cm. The electric charge recorded during irradiation served as the response for this real-time dosimeter. The dosimetry type-testing criteria for IOeRT at 8 MeV were evaluated, encompassing aspects such as linearity of response, dose rate, bias polarity, repeatability, field size, and dependency on electron energy. To assess energy dependency, the dosimeter's response was measured at various energies including 6, 8, 10, and 12 MeV utilizing a LIAC dedicated IOeRT machine. The results indicated a linear correlation in the dosimeter's response across absorbed doses up to 17 Gy. Furthermore, the various type-testing evaluations demonstrated compliance with IEC 60731 standard, with the exception of energy dependency, which necessitates the application of a suitable correction factor.
期刊介绍:
The journal seeks to publish papers that present advances in the following areas: spontaneous and stimulated luminescence (including scintillating materials, thermoluminescence, and optically stimulated luminescence); electron spin resonance of natural and synthetic materials; the physics, design and performance of radiation measurements (including computational modelling such as electronic transport simulations); the novel basic aspects of radiation measurement in medical physics. Studies of energy-transfer phenomena, track physics and microdosimetry are also of interest to the journal.
Applications relevant to the journal, particularly where they present novel detection techniques, novel analytical approaches or novel materials, include: personal dosimetry (including dosimetric quantities, active/electronic and passive monitoring techniques for photon, neutron and charged-particle exposures); environmental dosimetry (including methodological advances and predictive models related to radon, but generally excluding local survey results of radon where the main aim is to establish the radiation risk to populations); cosmic and high-energy radiation measurements (including dosimetry, space radiation effects, and single event upsets); dosimetry-based archaeological and Quaternary dating; dosimetry-based approaches to thermochronometry; accident and retrospective dosimetry (including activation detectors), and dosimetry and measurements related to medical applications.
