摘要
The Cyclotron Center in Shin Kong Wu Ho-Su Memorial Hospital (SK Cyclotron Center) produced the (18)F-FDG compound and provided it to the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) center for diagnosis services. The works in SK Cyclotron Center are distinguished into three procedures including production, dispensation, and carry of the compound. As the medical cyclotron was operated to produce the radioactive compounds, secondary radiations such as neutrons and gamma-rays were also induced. To estimate the exposure for the staffs working in the SK Cyclotron Center, the dual-TLD (TLD-600/700) chips were used to measure the doses contributed from photons and neutrons during the operation of the cyclotron, and the doses contributed from photons during dispensation and carry of the nuclear compounds. In the results, the mean H(p)(10) and H(p)(0.07) of the finger for a worker were 2.11 mSv y(-1) and 96.19 mSv y(-1), respectively. Results estimated by the regular personal chest badges and finger ring dosimeters which considered only the doses of photons were compared. By means of the results of this work, doses contributed from different working procedures and from different types of radiation to the workers in the SK Cyclotron Center were realized.
