Effects of neurosurgical titanium mesh on radiation dose
Medical Dosimetry, 12/08/2006
Hassisen Patone M.D, et al. - The purpose of this study was to determine the dosimetric impact of a neurosurgical titanium mesh in patients treated with 6- and 18-MV photon beams. The effects of a 0.4-mm-thick titanium mesh on the dose profile at 3 regions within a solid water phantom were measured using extended dose range-2 (EDR2) film for 6- and 18-MV photon beams
