Determination of the dose rate around a HDR 192Ir brachytherapy source with the microDiamond and the microSilicon detector

Determination of the dose rate around a HDR 192Ir brachytherapy source with the microDiamond and the microSilicon detector

Purpose: To employ the microDiamond and the microSilicon detector (mDD and mSD, both PTW-Freiburg, Germany) to determine the dose rate around a HDR 192Ir brachytherapy source (model mHDR-v2r, Elekta AB, Sweden).Methods: The detectors were calibrated with a 60Co beam at the PTW Calibration Laboratory...
