Radiation Detection Company - RDC

If you've heard the TLD vs. OSL debates before, you may have heard someone say, “TLD is old technology.” But that blanket statement doesn’t hold up when you look at the actual detector materials and performance data.

Modern TLD materials perform very differently from the legacy technology behind many common TLD vs. OSL comparisons. Depending on the detector material, radiation environment, and needs of your dosimetry program, TLD can still be the right choice.

In our latest blog, Chris Passmore, CHP, takes a closer look at where modern TLDs perform comparably to OSL (including tissue equivalence, low-dose sensitivity, and longer wear periods), plus the defining area where OSL has an inherent advantage.

The takeaway? Don’t evaluate TLD vs. OSL by the technology label alone – evaluate the detector, the application, and the performance data.

The real measure of a dosimetry partnership is how it performs over time.

Nearly two years after Boone Health partnered with Radiation Detection Company, we checked back in to see what’s changed.

Our newly updated case study looks at the long-term results, including continued annual cost savings, faster reporting, responsive customer service, proactive account management, and greater control over day-to-day dosimetry program management.

See radiation exposure as it happens.

Radiant real-time dosimetry provides clinical teams with immediate visibility into radiation exposure during procedures, helping them make informed adjustments in the moment.

Built for high-exposure environments, including interventional radiology, cardiac cath labs, electrophysiology, and hybrid ORs, Radiant delivers:
• Dose information updated as fast as every 0.2 seconds
• Real-time visibility for multiple team members
• Configurable dose and dose-rate alerts
• Actionable data to support ALARA practices
