The need for an accurate, practical, low-cost 3D dosimetry system is becoming ever more critical as modern dose delivery techniques increase in complexity and sophistication. A recent report from the Radiological Physics Center (RPC) (1), revealed that 38% of institutions failed the head-and-neck IMRT phantom credentialing test at the first attempt. This was despite generous passing criteria (w...
متن کاملEvaluation of a fast method of EPID-based dosimetry for IMRT and Comparison with 3D EPID-based dosimetry system using conventional two- and three-dimensional detectors for VMAT
Introduction: Electronic portal imaging devices (EPIDs) could potentially be useful for intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and VMAT QA. The data density, high resolution, large active area, and efficiency of the MV EPID make it an attractive option. However, EPIDs were designed as imaging devices, not dosimeters, and as a result they do not inherently measure dose in ...
متن کاملFan-beam scanning laser optical CT system for large volume 3D dosimetry
Introduction: Optical CT scanning of radiochromic gel dosimeters is a method for true 3D dosimetry, which is becoming increasingly needed as radiation therapy techniques become more advanced. Optical CT has developed from slow pencil beam laser scanners to fast cone-beam scanners using cameras. However, scattered light perturbs these broad-beam scanners, resulting in cupping artifacts and loss ...
