De Ost B, Schaeken B, Vynckier S, Sterpin E, Van den Weyngaert D
Med Phys . 2011 Nov; 38(11):6020-6. PMID: 22047366
Purpose: The aim of this study was to implement a protocol for reference dosimetry in tomotherapy and to validate the beam output measurements with an independent dosimetry system. Methods: Beam...

Schaeken B, Cuypers R, Lelie S, Schroeyers W, Schreurs S, Janssens H, et al.
Radiother Oncol . 2011 Mar; 99(1):94-6. PMID: 21397968
A measurement procedure based on alanine/electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) dosimetry was implemented successfully providing simple, stable, and accurate dose-to-water (D(w)) measurements. The correspondence between alanine and ionization chamber measurements in...

Schaeken B, Lelie S, Meijnders P, Van den Weyngaert D, Janssens H, Verellen D
Med Phys . 2011 Feb; 37(12):6292-9. PMID: 21302785
Purpose: To avoid complications in total body irradiation (TBI), it is important to achieve a homogeneous dose distribution throughout the body and to deliver a correct dose to the lung...

Verbeek F, Koppen G, Schaeken B, Verschaeve L
Radiat Prot Dosimetry . 2007 Oct; 128(4):421-6. PMID: 17921509
Food irradiation is the process of exposing food to ionising radiation in order to disinfect, sanitise, sterilise and preserve food or to provide insect disinfestation. Irradiated food should be adequately...

Soares C, Vynckier S, Jarvinen H, Cross W, Sipila P, Fluhs D, et al.
Med Phys . 2001 Aug; 28(7):1373-84. PMID: 11488568
An international intercomparison of the dosimetry of three beta particle emitting ophthalmic applicators was performed, which involved measurements with radiochromic film, thermoluminescence dosimeters (TLDs), alanine pellets, plastic scintillators, extrapolation ionization...

De Ost B, Vanregemorter J, Schaeken B, Van den Weyngaert D
Radiother Oncol . 1998 Jan; 45(3):275-7. PMID: 9426122
Background And Purpose: The use of new materials in radiotherapy requires an investigation of the effects of these materials on the relevant beam parameters. The high strength and low density...

Schaeken B, Scalliet P
Appl Radiat Isot . 1996 Nov; 47(11-12):1177-82. PMID: 9022176
Commercially available alanine dosimeters from different manufacturers were purchased for this study. The response of the detectors was evaluated with 60Co gamma radiation in the dose range 0.2-200 Gy, using...
