Abstract:
1. A portable medical radiation dose reader, comprising; a portable housing; and a circuit held in the portable housing, the circuit configured to communicate with an electronic memory of at least one single use internal dosimeter to obtain pre-radiation voltage threshold data stored in the memory, electronically determine a dose amount of radiation exposure that the at least one dosimeter is exposed to in association with a therapeutic radiation treatment and to electronically prompt a user to input predetermined data associated with dose evaluation, patient data, and/or clinic data, wherein the reader circuit is also configured to communicate with an electronic memory of at least one single use external skin mount radiation dosimeter patch to obtain pre-radiation voltage threshold data stored in the memory, electronically determine a dose amount of radiation exposure that the at least one patch is exposed to in association with a therapeutic radiation treatment and prompt a user to input predetermined data associated with dose evaluation, patient data and/or clinic data.
