Total Body Irradiation Using a Modified Standing Technique: In Vivo Dosimetry with Semiconductor Diodes

The aim of this study was to establish a fast and simple online dosimetric verification method for total body irradiation (TBI) using semiconductor diodes. Twenty one patients were treated with fractionated TBI (12 Gy, 2 Gy BID) using a modified standing technique between February 2010 and March 2012. The prescribed dose was administered to the patient’s mid-plane at the level of the umbilicus....

In vivo dosimetry with diodes in rectal cancer patients

Background. Success of radiotherapy relies on accurate dose delivery. In vivo dosimetry improves control of treatment quality. Patients and methods. In vivo dosimetry with commercial diodes was performed in 209 rectal cancer patients treated with four-field box technique. The diodes measured either entrance or exit dose in each treatment field. The results were compared to the planned values an...

EPID in vivo Dosimetry

Introduction: The most modern radiotherapy devices are equipped with an Electronic Portal Imaging Device (EPID) system which is located on opposite side of the machine’s head. EPID system is often used to setting up the position verification during or between radiotherapy sessions. Material and Methods: Various types of dosimeters have been used to setting up ...

In vivo dosimetry using a single diode for megavoltage photon beam radiotherapy: Implementation and response characterization

The AAPM Task Group 40 reported that in vivo dosimetry can be used to identify major deviations in treatment delivery in radiation therapy. In this paper, we investigate the feasibility of using one single diode to perform in vivo dosimetry in the entire radiotherapeutic energy range regardless of its intrinsic buildup material. The only requirement on diode selection would be to choose a diode...
