TLD: intrinsic energy dependence

is in the order of 0.90

±

0.05 to 0.935

±

0.03 for I-125 and Pd-103

This correction appears to be protocol and TLD make specific.

A correction might be needed for HE sources as well

(Joint AAPM-ESTRO report suggests

) but for Ir-192 Carlsson et al. (Med.

Phys. 39(2), 1133. 2012) suggests

but with increased uncertainties

(3.5%, k=1).
