Fast Neutron Medical Research Facility-Dosimetry

Description: Dosimetry measurements and calibrations have been made at the University of Washington's Fast Neutron Medical Research Facility. The facility is designed to deliver localized neutron doses of a few rads to the testes of volunteer subjects at 2.5 MeV and 14 MeV. Dose measurements were based on the use of tissue equivalent ion chambers. Dosimetry and shielding measurements show that doses accurate to +-10% can be delivered to the volume of interest while maintaining safe dose levels outside the s… more
