New computer procedure for routine EPR-dosimetry on tooth enamel: description and verification.
A software code was developed for fitting the EPR tooth enamel spectrum using linear combinations of Gaussian functions. The software is fastening EPR dose reconstruction for routine applications. The verification of the software was done comparing with the selective saturation method as an independent procedure of signal evaluation. Both methods were applied for the dose reconstruction of 13 teeth mostly from the Techa riverside. The evaluated doses by the two methods demonstrate an excellent agreement.
