Title: YAP:CE SCINTILLATOR APPLICATION FOR 241AM COUNTING IN WOUND INJURY. Author: Fojtík P, Rovenská V. Journal: Radiat Prot Dosimetry; 2022 Aug 22; 198(9-11):586-589. PubMed ID: 36005964. Abstract: YAP:Ce scintillation probe was tested for use in a spectrometric measurement that is necessary to assess the internal dose in case of wound injuries involving radionuclide contaminant. A technique with metal filters published in the past for the determination of a depth of plutonium-contaminated wound was tested to verify the capability of the scintillator to be used for gamma-ray spectrometry counting of 241Am in a wound injury. Scintillation probe equipped with YAP:Ce scintillator showed properties sufficient for the wound counting technique tested.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
