Organ doses determined using a RANDO phantom for different radionuclide depositions and photon energies

Hörnlund, Mikael and Bernhardsson, Christian LU orcid (2013) Medical physics in the Baltic States 2013 p.103-105
Abstract
Dose conversion coefficients relating the kerma free-in-air to effective dose have been studied. In order to do so a sampling scheme encompassing all the risk organs and tissues was developed for the Alderson RANDO phantom. Preliminary results are shown for some specific organs irradiated with a point source in the laboratory.
