Primary standards and dosimetry protocols for brachytherapy sources
C G Soares1, G Douysset2 and M G Mitch1
Show affiliationsCurrent primary standards for the calibration of both photon and beta particle emitting brachytherapy sources are reviewed. Methods for quality control being used as well as methods of transferring these standards to secondary laboratories and users are also discussed. Finally, dosimetry protocols for brachytherapy sources are described.
