ESR cavities for in vivo dosimetry of tooth enamel.
TM110 mode and TE111 mode ESR microwave cavities for in vivo human tooth dosimetry are developed. ESR signal from a sample is measured by using microwave leak from the pin hole on the cavity wall. The minimum detectable dose of 2 Gy is obtained by the signal accumulation for 100 sweeps.
