  • Title: [Energy dependence of the response of thermoluminescent dosimetry to high-energy electrons].
    Author: Lübbert K, Rahim H.
    Journal: Strahlentherapie; 1985 Feb; 161(2):109-12. PubMed ID: 3919469.
    Abstract:
    Sufficiently reproducible measuring results can be achieved even for simple TLD units by a control procedure which is easy to apply. It is demonstrated by means of the proposed control procedure that the dependence on energy of the TLD-100 rods is negligible in case of a measuring uncertainty of +/- 3%. This is confirmed by depth dose measurements in comparison with ionisation measurements and semiconductor measurements. TLD-100 rods are thus suitable for the measurement of the dose distribution in a typical solid phantom, such as the humanoid phantom of Alderson Research Laboratories, Long Island, N.Y. The results of these measurements, especially with regard to the verification of the irradiation planning, will be presented in a later report.
