Three-Dimensional Dosimetry of a Beta-Emitting Radionuclide Using PRESAGE® Dosimeters

Three-dimensional dose distributions from liquid brachytherapy were measured using PRESAGE(®) dosimeters. The dosimeters were exposed to Y-90 for 5.75 days and read by optical tomography. The distributions are consistent with estimates from beta dose kernels.
