Radioactive source localization employing resistive electrode array (REA) detector.

In this feasibility study, we explore an application of a Resistive Electrode Array (REA) for localization of a radioactive point source. The inverse problem posed by multichannel REA detection is studied from mathematical perspective and involves the questions of the minimal configuration of the conductive leads that can achieve this goal. The basic configuration consists of a circularly shaped REA with four opposite electrical lead-pairs at its perimeter.

Resistive electrode array (REA) for radiotherapy beam monitoring and quality assurance.

We have developed a new type of detector array for monitoring of radiation beams in radiotherapy. The detector has parallel-plane architecture with multiple large-area uniform thin-film electrodes. At least one of the electrodes is resistive and has multiple signal readouts spread out along its perimeter.
