EYE-D
There is evidence that eye lens doses are high in interventional
radiology and cases of cataracts have been reported in recent
years. Individual dosemeters carried on the trunk are unable to
correctly measure the eye lens doses. EYE-D ™ allows for precise
measurements of radiation doses to eye lens, also in case when
protective glasses are used.
In EYE-D ™ the proven and reliable high-sensitive thermoluminescence
detectors MCP-N (LiF:Mg,Cu,P) are applied, which assure the good
energy – response and broad dose range between at least 10 μSv and 10 Sv.
Calibration and testing of dosemeters were performed on
cylindrical water phantom 20 cm diameter, 20 cm height with
0.5 cm PMMA walls.
The EYE-D ™ dosemeter was developed, optimized and tested
within the ORAMED (Optimization of RAdiation protection for
MEDical staff) project funded by EU-EURATOM within the
7th Framework Programme http://oramed-fp7.eu/
