“…Some studies showed that the luminescence signal from halides, such as NaCl and KCl, that exist in crystallized blood are very bright Polymeris et al, 2011). The OSL technique has been suggested for inorganic material, with studies on the OSL of organic materials such as bone, coral skeleton and shell (Barnes et al, 2003;Meriç et al, 2008). However, no work has been reported on the direct measurement of internal radiation doses using a blood sample.…”

In this work, it has been shown that it is possible to determine the radiation doses in human blood exposed to internal or external ionizing radiation treatment, both directly and retrospectively. OSL counts from the waste blood of a patient injected with a radiopharmaceutical for diagnostic or treatment purposes and from a blood sample having a laboratory-injected radiation dose were both used for measurements. The dose values obtained the bloods were found as ~0.46 Gy for the 1-5Gy dose range and as ~0.51 Gy for the 0.143-0.858 Gy dose range using the optically stimulated luminescence technique. The blood aliquots from a healthy person were exposed to different external laboratory doses. The dose values corresponding to a 10Gy laboratory dose from the aliquots exposed to external radiation were found as 10.94 ± 3.30 Gy for Disc 3 and 10.79 ± 3.28 Gy for Disc 1. This study shows that the dose received by a person can be measured simply and retrospectively, using only a very small amount of blood. The results may have important ramifications for the medicine and healthcare fields in particular.

Abstract:In this paper, the infrared stimulated luminescence (IRSL) property of naturally corroded aluminum and its possible applications in retrospective dosimetry have been briefly studied. Results are interesting, in particular with regard to the efforts of finding new and widely available materials for accident dosimetry. For aluminum corrosion, the dose response was found to be approximately linear between 2-80 Gy and to reach saturation before 300 Gy. The signal also showed good reproducibility without significant fading over storage durations of up to four mounts at room temperature. In addition to the luminescence, the corrosion samples were also analysed by X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD), but conclusive identification of the luminescent phase could not be made. It is concluded that the IRSL signals of this material can be favourable for dosimetry research.

“…Em 2008, Meriç e colaboradores [36] tiveram sucesso em fazer dosimetria em amostras antropologicas de osso cortical, osso trabecular e dentes usando OSL estimulada no infravermelho. Nesse trabalho foi mostrado que o sinal induzido pela radiação ionizante respondia linearmente à dose.…”
