Clinical dosimetry - Dosimetry with solid thermoluminescence detectors for photon and electron radiations in radiotherapy (ISO 28057:2019)

This document describes rules for the procedures, applications, and systems of thermoluminescence dosimetry (TLD) for dose measurements according to the probe method. It is particularly applicable to solid "TL detectors", i.e. rods, chips, and microcubes, made from LiF:Mg,Ti or LiF:Mg,Cu,P in crystalline or polycrystalline form. It is not applicable to LiF powders because their use requires special procedures. The probe method encompasses the arrangement, particularly in a water phantom or in a tissue-equivalent phantom, of single TL detectors or of "TL probes", i.e. sets of TL detectors arranged in thin-walled polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) casings.
The purpose of these rules is to guarantee the reliability and the accuracy indispensable in clinical dosimetry when applied on or in the patient or phantom. This document applies to dosimetry in teletherapy with both photon radiation from 20 keV to 50 MeV and electron radiation from 4 MeV to 25 MeV, as well as in brachytherapy with photon-emitting radionuclides. These applications are complementary to the use of ionization chambers.

Klinische Dosimetrie - Dosimetrie mit Festkörper-Thermolumineszenzdetektoren für Photonen- und Elektronenstrahlung in der Strahlentherapie (ISO 28057:2019)

Im vorliegenden Dokument werden Regeln für die Verfahren, Anwendungen und Messsysteme der Thermolumineszenzdosimetrie (TL-Dosimetrie, TLD) für Dosismessungen nach der Sondenmethode festgelegt. Sie ist anzuwenden insbesondere für Thermolumineszenz-Detektoren fester Form und Größe, d. h. Stäbchen (en: rods), Scheibchen (en: chips) und Mikrowürfel (en: microcubes), hergestellt aus LiF:Mg,Ti oder LiF:Mg,Cu,P in kristalliner oder polykristalliner Form. Sie ist nicht anzuwenden für LiF in Pulverform; dessen Gebrauch erfordert spezielle Verfahren. Die Sondenmethode beruht darauf, dass einzelne TL-Detektoren oder TL-Sonden, d. h. Sätze von TL-Detektoren, in ein Wasserphantom oder ein wasseräquivalentes Phantom eingebracht werden. Als TL Sonde bezeichnet man die Anordnung eines oder mehrerer TL-Detektoren in einem dünnwandigen Polymethylmethacrylat (PMMA)-Gehäuse.
Das Ziel dieser Regeln ist es, die in der klinischen Dosimetrie am Patienten oder im Phantom unentbehrliche Zuverlässigkeit und Genauigkeit sicherzustellen. Dieses Dokument ist anzuwenden für die Dosimetrie in der Teletherapie mit Photonenstrahlung von 20 keV bis 50 MeV und mit Elektronenstrahlung von 4 MeV bis 25 MeV sowie in der Brachytherapie mit Photonen emittierenden Radionukliden. Diese Anwendungen stellen eine wichtige Ergänzung zur Dosimetrie mit Ionisationskammern dar.

Dosimétrie clinique - Dosimétrie avec détecteurs thermoluminescents solides pour les rayonnements de photons et d'électrons en radiothérapie (ISO 28057:2019)

Le présent document décrit les règles pour les procédures, applications et systèmes de dosimétrie par thermoluminescence (TLD) pour les mesurages de doses conformément à la technique de la sonde. Il s'applique en particulier aux «détecteurs TL» solides, à savoir les bâtonnets, les pastilles et les microcubes fabriqués à partir de LiF:Mg,Ti ou de LiF:Mg,Cu,P sous forme cristalline ou polycristalline. Il ne s'applique pas aux poudres de LiF, étant donné que leur utilisation requiert des procédures spéciales. La technique de la sonde comprend la disposition, en particulier dans un fantôme d'eau ou dans un fantôme équivalant à un tissu, de détecteurs TL uniques ou de «sondes TL», c'est-à-dire des ensembles de détecteurs TL disposés dans des boîtiers de poly(méthacrylate de méthyle) (PMMA) à paroi fine.
Ces règles visent à garantir la fiabilité et l'exactitude indispensables en dosimétrie clinique lorsqu'elle est appliquée sur ou dans le patient ou le fantôme. Le présent document s'applique à la dosimétrie en téléradiothérapie pour le rayonnement de photons entre 20 keV et 50 MeV et le rayonnement d'électrons entre 4 MeV et 25 MeV ainsi qu'en curiethérapie avec des radionucléides émettant des photons. Ces applications sont complémentaires de l'utilisation des chambres d'ionisation.
