Nanodot Alternatives

With Landauer pulling the Nanodot product a few months ago, I'm curious what others are using for surface dose monitoring?

I'm gonna have to think about whether I've ever treated a shin.

Nightmare Merkel case on shin

I've treated a lot of skin cancer on the shin and let me tell you that TLD or other surface dose monitoring is unlikely to be needed. You get to see it in real time (weekly) !

Yeah, that was mine actually. Had forgotten about it.

Very common derm referral for me. They hate mohs down there as much as I hate radiating down there

Yeah, shin isn't a sun exposed site where I'm treating.

Will echo and say I also get a lot of shin referrals… not quite nightmare but not fun for anyone.

We are switching over to MOSFET from the OSLs. But don’t do a lot of in-vivo for skin unless there are particular concerns. Not standard for each case here

Same, I use MOSFET and probably perform in vivo dosi like, 1-3 times a month max.

(Guess my Danny D genes lay dormant, eh?)

In-vivo dosi is practically useless. It's a tool to avoid the egregious error only and can be a time sink for physics.

I would never adjust a skin plan based on a diode or other surface dosimetry reading outside of checking the calc or prescription for gross error.
