Permanent discontinuance of the microSTARii medical dosimetry system. Landauer has initiated this action to remove all reference to use of the microStar readers with the nanoDot or any otherbdosimeter for medical applications from the product s user manual and software and to remove microStar readers from customers who use them only for medical applications.

MicroSTARii readers may be contributing to the nanodot dosimeter measurement inaccuracy in two possible ways. The first is related to the interaction of the reader s LED beam profile with the nanoDot dosimeter. The second is debris formation due to drawer actuation, resulting in a change of reader response that may not be detectable unless known dose QCs are being run regularly.
