Radiation Research Core Laboratory
Font size:
The Radiation Research Core Laboratory is currently the only laboratory in Taiwan that can provide high-energy proton irradiation. Its main business includes two aspects: research and service. It can provide three major irradiation platforms including: medical physics, radiation biology, and electronic component reliability testing platform.
Before irradiation, we will use Monte Carlo technology to simulate the parameters required for irradiation according to customer needs, and choose "clinical treatment room" or "fifth laboratory" to provide irradiation services according to the required conditions. The treatment room can provide large-field irradiation, but the laboratory can provide stronger current, and the irradiation time is not limited, which is only the laboratory can do. The main reason is that the clinical treatment room is for medical use, equipped with a patient protection device, and each irradiation will automatically stop for up to 50 seconds, while the laboratory does not have this problem. In addition, the laboratory also provides a variety of signal output lines for customers to use.
