Este documento presenta una exhaustiva verificación de los sistemas de blindaje en un servicio de terapias radiometabólicas, ubicada en el cuarto piso del edificio de Medicina Nuclear. En esta área, se llevan a cabo terapias con I 131 , Lu177 y Ra223 al menos tres veces por semana, atendiendo a un pro...
To ensure a reliable verification of a radiation detector, the right parameters for this response verification must be determined and a specific characterization on the detectors of interest must be performed. These were the main pillars of this study, where four Geiger-Müller at the University of Costa...
Abstract. There are several methods for measuring the absorbed radiation dose of occupationally exposed professionals, but it is unknown if these are reproducible at low doses. The aim of this study is to determine the level of reproducibility of thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLD) and optically stimulate...
BACKGROUND: The ERCP procedure requires the use of fluoroscopy with the subsequent exposure to ionizing radiation. The doses received by patients, physicians and assistants in the endoscopy have never been recorded in our area. This analysis describes the findings of the MIRED_Uy study (measuring radiati...
