Abstract

Preliminary measurements for microCT dosimetry are reported in this work, using TLD‐100 crystals (1×1×1 mm3) within a solid water phantom specially designed with approximate dimensions of a mouse. A dose dependence as a function of radial distance and position along the axis of the phantom was found. Because of the smaller doses used in this work we can say that it is feasible to perform dosimetry measurements with high accuracy using TLD‐100 microcubes.
