摘要: This work deals with measurements of absorbed dose in bone due to beta-rays using thermoluminescent dosimeters. The calibration the CaSO4: Dy dosimeters was performed by immersing them a solution 90Sr-90Y. rate then computed from known concentration solution. Theoretical calculations based on Monte Carlo method were made for beta-emitting radionuclides contained small polypropylene tubes. Comparison between results and shows that model designed calculation is reasonable.
