Radiophotoluminescence Dosimetry

An introduction to the subject of radiophotoluminescence (RPL) dosimetry for medical and health physicists, bio-engineers, radiation protection advisers, surgeons, physicians and physiotherapists. It discusses the fundamental principles of operation, procedures, particularly dosimetric, and their implementation in radiation dosimetry. The book contains a useful comparison between glass, thermoluminescence and thin film methods of dosimetry to enable potential users to evaluate the merits of each from a theoretical and practical view point.
