The use of different detectors between this study and routine practice adds uncertainty, particularly for beta-particle exposure from 68Ga, as for this study detectors are used with an improved response for beta-particles. Moreover, routine ring dosemeters might sometimes be forgotten or affected ...
Activity and Power The nucleus of an isotope becomes more stable when it decays, therefore the energy E must be released and be carried away by the particle Long distance space probes require a nuclear power cell however if the activity is high to give high power then the source will not l...

As a first approximation the beta value could be neglected because cells have more time to repair their lesions due to the low absorbed dose rate [22, 23]. However, this is not always observed [24] and more studies are needed to deepen on the knowledge of alpha and beta values in TRT...
