| 1. | The escaping energy is counted in kerma, but not in absorbed dose.
|
| 2. | Plasma distribution of the absorbed dose conformed to a one-compartment open model.
|
| 3. | Stevens'absorbed dose was almost entirely based on the Pu-238 in his system.
|
| 4. | For low-energy photons, kerma is numerically approximately the same as absorbed dose.
|
| 5. | The CTDI can be used in conjunction with patient size to estimate the absorbed dose.
|
| 6. | At this time the rad and rem were introduced for absorbed dose and RBE-weighted dose respectively.
|
| 7. | These effects are compared to the physical quantity absorbed dose measured by the unit gray ( Gy ).
|
| 8. | These are specifically designed to record and indicate the absorbed dose ( or derived dosimetric index ) received.
|
| 9. | Bone marrow makes up 4 % of the body mass, so the whole-body absorbed dose would be 0.04 Gy.
|
| 10. | Radiotherapy treatments are typically prescribed in terms of the local absorbed dose, which might be 60 Gy or higher.
