RETRACTED: Reproducibility study of (TLD-100) dosimeters using an automated and manual TLD reader for radiotherapy applications

Reason: This article has plagiarized part of a paper that had already appeared in Appl. Radiat. Isotopes 50 (1999) 573-577, doi:10.1016/S0969-8043(98)00068-2. One of the conditions of submission of a paper for publication is that authors declare explicitly that their work is original and has not appeared in a publication elsewhere. Re-use of any data should be appropriately cited. As such this article represents a severe abuse of the scientific publishing system. The scientific community takes a very strong view on this matter and we apologize to readers of the journal that this was not detected during the submission process.
