The influences of inorganic scintillator optical fiber radiation dosimeter in some conditions

In order to meet the increasing demands of modern radiotherapy, real time in-vivo dose measurement has recently attracted significant attention. A small, flexible optical fiber radiation dosimeter, with high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) that employs inorganic scintillator materials is presented. In this paper, some properties are investigated under special conditions, such as saturation properties when the intensity of the X-Ray is increased and the influence of the temperature of the environment. These properties are important to practical considerations if the sensor is to be successfully deployed in-vivo.
