Canadian technology start-up Medscint is partnering with researchers at UMC Utrecht to develop a real-time dosimetry platform for MR-guided adaptive radiotherapy Optical innovation, clinical ...

Geiger counters are a popular hacker project, and may yet prove useful if and when the nuclear apocalypse comes to pass. They’re not the only technology out there for detecting radiation however.

Scintillation dosimetry utilises the conversion of ionising radiation into visible photons within scintillating materials to quantify the dose delivered during radiotherapy. These detectors range from ...

Berkeley Nucleonics, an authority in the nuclear science community, is offering an educational introduction to Nuclear Scintillation Detectors in an online training module. Scintillation detectors are ...

Researchers at the University of Tsukuba create a new lithium-based scintillator crystal for detecting radiation that can distinguish between neutrons and gamma rays, which may lead to improved ...

Can’t find a recently updated survey of radioactivity in your neighborhood? Try [Hunter Long]’s DIY scintillation counter warwalking rig. (Video also embedded below.) What looks like a paint can with ...

The University of Jyväskylä (Finland), in collaboration with the Finnish Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority (STUK), has developed a new type of handheld multi-purpose radiation detector that ...
