Gated Optical Detectors-Dose Guided Radiotherapy

我们已经获得了一个闪烁探测器，可以补偿切伦科夫辐射。这 系统（于2019年4月交付）的探测器直径为1 mm， 长度虽然没有OSL检测器那么小，但应该足以实现精确输出 4 mm直径立体定向锥的测量。该探测器的另一个优点是 它与我们的IBA Blue Phantom II扫描水体模兼容。由于其他 由于工作紧迫，我们预计将于2022年秋季开始测量。失去我们的机器 由于翻修/升级，该商店暂时停止了该项目的进展， 延迟雇用一个机械师来代替我们的，谁意外死亡。一旦COVID-19 限制解除，机械车间改造完成后，该项目将 简历机械车间的装修现已完成，我们正在招聘一名 一个有机械车间经验的生物医学工程师来运行它。之后，我们将重新评估 这个项目，以确定如何最好地进行。

We have acquired a scintillation detector that compensates for Cerenkov radiation. This system (which was delivered in April, 2019) has a detector that has a 1mm diameter with a 1mm length. While not as small as the OSL detector, it should be adequate for accurate output measurements of a 4mm diameter stereotactic cone. The additional advantage of this detector is that it is compatible with our IBA Blue Phantom II scanning water phantom. Due to other pressing work, we expect to begin measurements in the Fall of 2022. The loss of our machine shop due to renovation/ upgrade has temporarily halted progress on this project, as has the delay of hiring a machinist to replace ours, who unexpectedly died. As soon as COVID-19 restrictions are lifted and renovations to the machine shop are complete, this project will resume. Machine shop renovations are now complete and we are in the process of hiring a biomedical engineer with machine shop experience to run it. Afterwards, we will re-evaluate this project to determine how best to proceed.
