Inductively Coupled Plasma–Mass Spectrometry (ICP–MS): Overview01:19

Inductively Coupled Plasma–Mass Spectrometry (ICP–MS): Overview

In inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (ICP–MS), an inductively coupled plasma (ICP) torch is used as an atomizer and ionizer. Solid samples are dissolved and volatilized before being introduced into the high-temperature argon plasma, while solution samples are nebulized and passed through the high-temperature argon plasma. Plasma dissociates the analytes and ionizes their component atoms to form a mixture of positive ions and molecular species. The positive ions are then passed on to...

Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS): Interferences

Inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (ICP–MS) is a highly selective and sensitive technique for accurate elemental analysis. Though the analysis of ICP–MS mass spectra is comparatively straightforward, it is affected by spectroscopic and non-spectroscopic interferences. Spectroscopic interferences arise when the plasma contains ionic species with an m/z value the same as the analyte ion. Spectroscopic interference can be categorized as isobaric, polyatomic ions, and refractory oxide ion...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Physics
  • Radiological Protection
  • Computational Biology

Background:

  • International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) reference phantoms offer realistic human anatomy but have limitations due to voxel resolution, creating holes in skin and wall organs.
  • Existing MIRD5 mathematical phantoms lack the anatomical detail of ICRP phantoms.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a polygon-surface version of ICRP reference phantoms by converting voxel phantoms.
  • To assess the feasibility of creating high-quality polygon-surface phantoms with identical organ morphology.
  • To identify potential issues and solutions in the conversion process for improved radiation dosimetry.

Main Methods:

  • Direct conversion of the ICRP reference male phantom (voxel) to a polygon-surface phantom.
  • Implementation of the polygon-surface phantom in Geant4 for Monte Carlo particle transport simulations.
  • Comparison of dose calculations between the original voxel phantom and the new polygon-surface phantom.

Main Results:

  • Successful conversion of the ICRP reference phantom to a polygon-surface model with accurate organ masses.
  • Dose calculations showed minimal sensitivity to morphological changes for highly penetrating radiations (photons, neutrons).
  • Polygon-surface phantom yielded 2-5 times higher doses for skin and wall organs with weakly penetrating radiations (electrons) due to improved representation of organ integrity.

Conclusions:

  • Polygon-surface ICRP phantoms can be accurately constructed, maintaining organ morphology.
  • The new phantoms provide more reliable dose values for weakly penetrating radiations compared to voxel-based phantoms.
  • Properly developed polygon-surface phantoms offer comparable or improved accuracy in radiation dosimetry, particularly for sensitive organs.
