自从X光被发现以来，用于诊断的X光一直很重要。对X射线剂量的测量是这些检查的风险与益处的主要决定因素。辐射探测器是剂量测量的重要设备。对这些探测器的描述，包括最常用的电离室，有助于理解它们的使用。探测器的正确和准确使用取决于对其校准和特性的了解。描述了诸如包括专用室的电离室的检测器和包括发光检测器的固体检测器。接下来是对校准过程的描述。对使用中的探测器的了解会极大地影响测量的精度。(C)1998爱思唯尔科学有限公司。保留所有权利。
The use of X-rays for diagnosis has been significant since its discovery. A measurement of the X-ray dose is the main determinant for risk vs benefit of these examinations. Radiation detectors are important for dose measurement. A description of these detectors, including the most frequently used ionization chamber, aids in the understanding necessary for their use. Proper and accurate use of detectors depends on an understanding of their calibration and their characteristics. Detectors such as ionization chamber, including specialized chambers, and solid detectors, including luminescent detectors, are described. This is followed by a description of the calibration process. The precision of measurements can be greatly affected by an understanding of the detector in use. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd.
