AB  - Individual monitoring service at the Department for Radiation and Environmental Protection of Vinca Institute of
Nuclear Sciences performs individual whole-body and extremities monitoring of exposed workers, using thermoluminescent dosimetry (TLD) method. The dosemeters for eye-lens personal dose equivalent measurements,
Hp(3), are not regularly used at the workplaces in Serbia, even though the individual monitoring method is
accredited and available at the dosimetry service. Type testing of Hp(3) dosemeters based on LiF: Mg,Ti, placed in
modified ring holders was done following the changes in ISO 4037:2019 and IEC 62387:2020. The type testing
was done by varying radiation-based influence quantities: photon energies ranging from 33.3 keV up to 1.25
MeV, angle of incidence values of 0◦, 45◦, 60◦, 75◦, dose range from 0.05 mSv to 10 Sv. The results show that the
passive dosimetry monitoring system satisfies IEC 62387:2020 requirements in the mandatory range of influence
quantities, except for the lowest tested energy of 33 keV, when incident radiation angle is ±60◦ and higher.

AB  - Presented study describes the optimization method of an HPGe detector through implementation of Geant4 toolkit. The optimized model was verified through comparison with experimentally obtained data using a set of point-like radioactive calibration sources. Acquired results displayed good agreement with the experimental data that falls under an average relative deviation of the order of ~ 2% within the energy range of 53–1836 keV. Additionally, in order to test the validity of the code it was also applied to a different detection equipment where an average relative deviation of the order of ~ 1.8% was achieved within the energy range of 121–1112 keV. © 2023, Akadémiai Kiadó, Budapest, Hungary.

AB  - Quality control (QC) guidelines published by the IAEA, American College of Radiology, European Commission, and other authorities have demonstrated that regular QC testing of radiographic facilities, involving daily or weekly tests, effectively contributes to patient radiation exposure reduction and improvement of image quality. Often lack of staff qualified to effectively perform and analyze testing results, and needed resources (phantoms, measuring equipment) leads to poor QC practice and detection in system performance deficiencies only after they become clinically significant. New IAEA publication offers a solution with simple, inexpensive test objects which, using the advantages of computer networking, can allow the collection of data in a harmonized manner. The creation of a centralized data system should ensure consistency, easier evaluation, and comparison between different systems. The aim of this study was to implement the newly proposed QC program and test the available radiographic equipment for short-term fluctuations of some critical components of the imaging chain to ensure consistent system performance, clinically adequate image quality, and increase patient safety. The measurement was performed at the University Clinical Center of Vojvodina on a “home-made” phantom. The consistency of acquisition technical parameters and image quality indicators, metrics, and artifacts were assessed by generating images of the test phantom. Test phantom was formed by a uniform attenuator plate made of 10 cm × 10 cm, 2 mm thick square sheet of copper, and target plate consisted of a 5mm thick polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) carrier, and 4mm thick aluminum and 2mm thick copper inserts, as proposed by the IAEA. Generated images were analyzed using the ATIA software available for download for all Member States via the IAEA Human Health Campus. This paper presents preliminary results of the performed QC testing with the use of a “simple” phantom designed in accordance with the IAEA Human Health Series No.39 (2021).
