• 2018:13 Prestudy - Detectors for variance measurements

  Background The understanding of radiation quality requires knowledge about the energy deposition pattern of ionizing radiation on which models for cellular and sub-cellular damage can be built. Experimental data is fundamental in this context for quality assurance and bench-marking of models and simulations. Direct measurements are also of practical importance for radiation quality...

• 2018:09 Recent Research on EMF and Health Risk, Twelfth report from SSM's Scientific Council on Electromagnetic Fields, 2017

  Background The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority's (SSM) Scientific Council on Electromagnetic Fields monitors current research on potential health risks with a correlation to exposure to electromagnetic fields, and provides the Authority with advice on assessing possible health risks. The Council gives guidance when the Authority must give an opinion on policy matters when scientific testing...

• 2018:01 Monte Carlo patient-specific pre-treatment QA system for volumetric modulated arc therapy

  Background According to the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority's Regulations in Radiotherapy (SSMFS 2008:33) are Swedish clinics required to verify the individual dose to patients, prior the first time a new treatment is given. To fulfil this requirement, current clinics perform in-vivo dosimetry in three dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3DCRT), which means that the entrance of...

• 2017:37 Non-Ionising Radiation in Swedish Health Care

  Bakgrund Inom sjukvården används alltmera teknik som exponerar patienter för icke-joniserande strålning vid diagnostik och terapi. Ofta används sådan teknik som ett alternativ till och ibland i kombination med metoder som exponerar för joniserande strålning. Huvudsyftet med studien var att identifiera och beskriva hur icke-joniserande strålning används...

• 2017:13 Monte Carlo patient-specific pre-treatment QA system for volumetric modulated arc therapy

  Background The clinical use of volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) has augmented rapidly since it became commercially available. As a result, the need for comprehensive quality assurance (QA) has increased. Current practices in Sweden normally compare the delivered dose with the planned dose based on measurements with different methods, for instance: portal dosimetry, point dose...

• 2016:15 Recent Research on EMF and Health Risk, Eleventh report from SSM’s Scientific Council on Electromagnetic Fields, 2016

  Including Thirteen years of electromagnetic field research monitored by SSM’s Scientific Council on EMF and health: How has the evidence changed over time? The report has the objective of covering the previous year’s research in the area of electromagnetic fields (EMF). The report gives the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority an overview and provides an important basis for risk assessment. The...

• 2016:14 Radiological examinations of children: a study of method options

  The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority, SSM, decided in 2011 to investigate the justification of the use of diagnostic computed tomography (CT) for children up to fifteen years of age. The reason is the fact that CT is the main contributor to ionising radiation to the population. During the last decade, the annual number of CT examinations increased by 200%, and during the last 16 years, by...
