DEVICE FOR DETERMINING DOSE OF IONIZING RADIATION Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC G01T1/161 

FIELD: experimental nuclear physics, possible use for assuring radiation safety of people, working with sources of ionizing radiations, and also for determining doses, absorbed by their organs, and for determining effective dose.

SUBSTANCE: proposed device for determining a dose of ionizing radiations affecting a human, in case of uneven irradiation of subject body, is created on basis of anthropomorphic tissue-equivalent phantom of human, inside which detectors of ionizing radiation are positioned. Detectors consist of photo-electronic multiplexer and scintillator, having shape and dimensions matching shape and dimensions of human organ being studied and made of organic plastic material, or in form of vessel filled with liquid scintillator, while detector for determining dose of radiation in tissue of marrow consists of photo-electronic multiplexer and filament scintillator, passing through locations of tissues of haematogenic marrow. Scintillator parts of detectors are, as a rule, positioned in locations of appropriate organs and tissues inside the human body.

EFFECT: creation of device making it possible to receive information about radiation doses absorbed by organs being researched even under conditions of uneven irradiation of human, with lesser time costs and laboriousness.
