Determination of Calibration Factors and Uncertainties Associated with the Irradiation of MTS-N (LiF: Mg, Ti) Chips with Cesium-137 and X-ray Sources Under Low Doses for Personal Dosimetry in Diagnostic Radiology

Determination of Calibration Factors and Uncertainties Associated with the Irradiation of MTS-N (LiF: Mg, Ti) Chips with Cesium-137 and X-ray Sources Under Low Doses for Personal Dosimetry in Diagnostic Radiology

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare calibration factors for deep dose equivalent Hp (10) and shallow dose equivalent Hp (0.07) between Cesium (Cs)-137 and X-ray sources when they are exposed to same dose and to determine uncertainties with MTS-N (LiF: Mg, Ti) chips when they are expose...
