Nov 15, 2020 · The broad spectrum of Cherenkov light leads to significant spectral overlap with any luminescence emission and, to overcome this problem, a single pixel hyperspectral imaging methodology was demonstrated here by coupling the detection with light sheet scanning and filtered back projection reconstruction of hyperspectral images.
A classic example of Cherenkov radiation is the characteristic blue glow of an underwater nuclear reactor. Its cause is similar to the cause of a sonic boom, the sharp sound heard when faster-than-sound movement occurs. The phenomenon is named after Soviet physicist Pavel Cherenkov .
Sep 20, 2021 · The calculated radiant Cherenkov emission from Eqs. (2) and (9) is plotted as a function of surface dose (a), dose build-up slope (b), and the effective attenuation coefficient in tissue (c). In (a), k 1 is varied with constant k 2 values for 6, 10, and 18 MV x-ray beams as indicated.
Nov 4, 2021 · A novel three-channel intensified camera capable of imaging Cherenkov emission in full color was developed, allowing for sensitivity to in vivo biological tissue information during radiotherapy.

These sheets produce Cherenkov light within the medium, which in turn excites luminescence of an optical probe across the sheet plane. This luminescence can then be imaged by an intensified camera positioned perpendicular to the sheet plane.
