Sep 24, 2009· 2.1. Approaches for reducing the whole-body dose produced by secondary neutrons. Prima facie, the most direct way to reduce the whole-body neutron dose in a passively scattered system is simply to add shielding between the beamline neutron sources and the patient, and this has been suggested (Taddei et al 2008).There are limitations to this approach: first, the bulk shielding would be ...

Neutron Detectors: Activation Foils | Oncology Medical Physics
Activation foil is placed in area with neutron presence for set period of time. Once exposure is complete, the foil must be taken to a sensitive detector to read out. This is typically done with thin window Geiger counter (for β- emitting foils) or a NaI Crystal or Gi(Li) detector (γ emitting foils).

Results from the use of a commercial, off-the-shelf X-ray scanner using storage phosphors to measure neutron activation in 1- and 2-D are presented. The technique consists of irradiating thin foils or wires of various elements, then placing the activated material on the storage phosphors to expose them. The amount of exposure is proportional to the activation obtained.
