Simulation of Radiation Dose from Diagnostic X-ray Beams
Publié en 2013
Direct realization of absorbed dose to water in diagnostic radiation via calorimetric methods poses many challenges since the thermal signal of interest may be less than a few microKelvin. In actual biological systems or structures, like the lung, there is the additional complication of tissue heterogeneity, which introduces a quasi-random component to the dose distribution, hence to thermal indicators that might be used for metrological purposes. In the present study, a first effort is made to simulate how such indicators might be analyzed for purposes of realizing absorbed dose to biological tissue models, by importing a lung model from Simpleware into COMSOL and running simulations involving the Heat Transfer Module.
