Most TLD vs. OSL comparisons rely on outdated detector data or simplified marketing claims.

A new report from RDC President Chris Passmore, CHP, compares modern LiF:Mg,Cu,P TLD and BeO OSL using performance data from RDC’s NVLAP-accredited laboratory (Lab Code 100512-0) – including fade, lower limit of detection, reread performance, and tissue equivalence.

Key takeaways:
• Modern copper-doped lithium fluoride TLD dosimeters perform far differently than legacy TLD-100
• OSL rereads depend heavily on whether the system uses laser or LED stimulation
• LLD claims only matter when tied to actual wear periods
• Tissue equivalence remains one of the most overlooked drivers of dose accuracy

Modern detector performance is more nuanced than most comparisons suggest, and we're sharing valuable technical details to provide greater clarity.

Compare modern TLD and OSL dosimeters using real NVLAP-accredited lab data from RDC. Explore fade rates, lower limit of detection, reread accuracy, tissue equivalence, and environmental performance.

Compliance gaps don’t always come from a lack of effort – more often, they come from disconnected workflows, fragmented ownership, and operational silos that create hidden risk across imaging organizations.

Join us for a live webinar exploring how imaging leaders can strengthen compliance readiness, improve accountability, and reduce operational risk by better aligning compliance and operational workflows.

Carmen Geerlings will lead a practical discussion on how imaging organizations can:
• Improve compliance and accreditation readiness
• Strengthen radiation safety oversight
• Reduce workflow inconsistencies and accountability gaps
• Implement practical tools that improve visibility and ex*****on
• Minimize reactive “fire drills” before audits and inspections

Last week, Gregg Daversa had the unique opportunity to tour the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida, alongside a select group from the Florida Chapter of the Health Physics Society.

The highlight? A firsthand look at Mayo Clinic’s groundbreaking work to reintroduce carbon ion therapy to North America – a major advancement in cancer treatment that’s setting a new standard for precision and patient care.

With a new facility under construction in Jacksonville, Mayo Clinic is leading the way in bringing this cutting-edge technology back to the US – an exciting step forward for the future of radiation science and oncology.

Thank you to the Florida Chapter of the Health Physics Society and Mayo Clinic for the opportunity to witness firsthand the innovations shaping cancer treatment options for patients around the globe.

New radiology reporting requirements are coming, and many organizations aren’t fully prepared.

As expectations around radiation dose visibility and documentation increase, imaging teams need systems that support accurate reporting, audit-readiness, and proactive safety management.

This guide, written by Chuck Nagel, Healthcare Business Partner at RDC, breaks down what’s changing in 2027 – and what steps you can take now to stay ahead.
