As useful to students and nuclear professionals as its popular predecessors, this fifth edition provides the most up-to-date and accessible introduction to radiation detector materials, systems, and applications. There have been many advances in the field of radiation detection, most notably in practical applications. Incorporating these important developments, Measurement and Detection of Radi…
The sun radiates a tremendous amount of energy, called solar energy or solar radiation, which is the main natural source of energy on the Earth, by far. Because solar radiation is the almost unique supplier of energy to the Earth, it has a primary influence on life and activities on the Earth. The climate is a first example, but there are many others, such as plant growth or human health, or ev…
This comprehensive book covers the everyday use and underlying principles of radiation dosimeters used in radiation oncology clinics. It provides an up-to-date reference spanning the full range of current modalities with emphasis on practical know-how. The main audience is medical physicists, radiation oncology physics residents, and medical physics graduate students. The reader gains the neces…
Big Data in Radiation Oncology gives readers an in-depth look into how big data is having an impact on the clinical care of cancer patients. While basic principles and key analytical and processing techniques are introduced in the early chapters, the rest of the book turns to clinical applications, in particular for cancer registries, informatics, radiomics, radiogenomics, patient safety and qu…
Radiation Detection: Concepts, Methods, and Devices provides a modern overview of radiation detection devices and radiation measurement methods. The book topics have been selected on the basis of the authors’ many years of experience designing radiation detectors and teaching radiation detection and measurement in a classroom environment. This book is designed to give the reader more than …
Surface Guided Radiation Therapy provides a comprehensive overview of optical surface image guidance systems for radiation therapy. It serves as an introductory teaching resource for students and trainees, and a valuable reference for medical physicists, physicians, radiation therapists, and administrators who wish to incorporate surface guided radiation therapy (SGRT) into their clinical pract…
Conclusion of this thesis: - Exposure effects in SF obtained by cell proliferation tracking system (more detail read on page 71) - Develop new approach to indicate radiation exposure effects on cells, that will be comparabale and more beneficial to traditional methods (More detail read on page 71)
This thesis about the use of scintillation detectors for radiation monitoring. Japan is one country that has many nuclear power plants. To ensure around nuclear power plants, it is necessary to build a radiation monitoring station. Radiation monitoring is carried out by measuring the air dose rate and radionuclide content. In the nuclear emergency disaster scenario, radiation monitoring is one …
The primary aim of the handbook series will be to include as much useful data as possible for the specialist needing ready access for the solution of problems most likely to arise in the radiation protection professions. However, some selected review of fundamental concepts is also included to enable persons with a basic science or engineering background to acquire the necessary knowledge to so…
Radiasi hadir dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Ada yang alami dan ada yang buatan. Keduanya ada manfaatnya. Namun, radiasi buatan kendati bermanfaat harus berhati-hati ketika menggunakannya. Oleh karena itu, perlu ada pengetahuan khusus yang membahas tentang radiasi. Berkaitan hal tersebut, buku yang ditulis oleh John ini menarik untuk dibaca karena secra khusus membahas tentang dunia radiasi dan k…
