Evaluation of effective dose for a patient under Ga-67 nuclear examination using TLD, water phantom and a simplified model

This study evaluated the effective dose of Ga-67 for a patient undergoing Ga-67 citrate nuclear examination by applying thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) technique and an indigenous water phantom. The Ga-67 radionuclide remaining in the body inevitably generated a measurable internal dose even thoug...
