Researcher in the Unit Research in Dosimetric Applications - Belgian Nuclear Research Centre, Mol, Belgium
Bio
Marijke De Saint-Hubert is responsible for dosimetry applications in the medical field with a particular focus on out-of-field organ doses during radiotherapy as assessed using anthropomorphic phantoms and various dosimetry systems such as thermoluminescent detectors (TLD), optically stimulated luminescence (OSL), radiophotoluminescence (RPL), bubble detectors, Mini-pix as well as neutron monitors (WENDI, TEPC, Berthold). She is a full member of the EURADOS, Working Group 9 “Radiation dosimetry in radiotherapy”, actively involved in tasks related to radiotherapy during pregnancy and intercomparison of Monte Carlo codes. Marijke De Saint-Hubert is a task leader within a recent European project (HARMONIC - 2019), where she is responsible for the measurements of out-of-field doses within pediatric phantoms for validation of dose reconstruction algorithms used within a cohort of 1800 patients.
