Measurement of high energy x-ray beam penumbra with Gafchromic EBT radiochromic film.
High energy x-ray beam penumbra are measured using Gafchromic EBT film. Gafchromic EBT, due to its limited energy dependence and high spatial resolution provide a high level of accuracy for dose assessment in penumbral regions. The spatial resolution of film detector systems is normally limited by the scanning resolution of the densitometer. Penumbral widths (80%/20%) measured at Dmax were foun...
متن کاملMeasurement of energy dependence for XRCT radiochromic film.
Gafchromic XRCT, radiochromic film is assessed over a broad energy range, from kilovoltage to megavoltage x rays for variations in reflected optical density to dose response. A large energy dependence was found with reflected optical density output for the same delivered dose varying from 7.8±0.35 at 25.5keV (50kVp) peaking at 12.1±0.5 at 54keV (125kVp) to 0.975±0.03 at 2300keV (10MV) when norm...
متن کاملComparison of Singh index accuracy and dual energy X-ray absorptiometry bone mineral density measurement for evaluating osteoporosis
Background: The Singh index is an inexpensive simple method to evaluate bone density, commonly used to assess osteoporosis is based on the radiological appearance of the trabecular bone structure of the proximal femur on a plain antero-posterior (AP) radiograph. The purpose of this study was to compare between Singh index and bone mineral density measurement using dual energy X-ray abs...
متن کاملXR type-R radiochromic film x-ray energy response.
Gafchromic XR type-R radiochromic film is a relatively new product designed for use at clinical diagnostic x-ray energies both qualitatively and quantitatively. This short note investigates the energy response characteristics of this high-sensitivity radiochromic film for both diagnostic and therapeutic x-ray energies. Results are also compared to conventional silver halide x-ray film for energ...
متن کاملSuitability of radiochromic films for dosimetry of low energy X‐rays
This study examined the response characteristics of three commercially available radiochromic films when exposed to low energy (50 kVp) X-rays. The aim was to evaluate the films for potential use in 2D dosimetry for a low-kV intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) device known as the ‘Intrabeam’. Dose-response relationships were obtained for Gafchromic EBT, XR-RV2, and XR-QA film in water at several...
