Some phantom designs for radiation dosimetry and CT applications. 1983

B R Thomadsen, and B R Paliwal, and J F Laursen, and C O Filamor, and P van de Geijn

Solid phantoms designed with nesting, rotatable cylinders, allow increased flexibility in the positioning of dosimeters or test objects, permitting continuous movement as in a water phantom, but with increased ease of handling. Using such phantoms, measurements can be made at almost any point in the cross section of a phantom, an ability not achievable with currently existing solid or water phantoms. A separate phantom design allows easy measurement at points along circles or radii in a phantom.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008961 Models, Structural A representation, generally small in scale, to show the structure, construction, or appearance of something. (From Random House Unabridged Dictionary, 2d ed) Model, Structural,Structural Model,Structural Models
D011829 Radiation Dosage The amount of radiation energy that is deposited in a unit mass of material, such as tissues of plants or animal. In RADIOTHERAPY, radiation dosage is expressed in gray units (Gy). In RADIOLOGIC HEALTH, the dosage is expressed by the product of absorbed dose (Gy) and quality factor (a function of linear energy transfer), and is called radiation dose equivalent in sievert units (Sv).
