Calibration of iridium-192 source by ionization chamber for high dose rate brachytherapy
Background: The effectiveness and safety of brachytherapy treatment is mainly concerned with the calibration of sources and their traceability to internationally accepted Standards. Secondary Standard Dosimetry Laboratory (SSDL) does not offer calibration of ionization chambers with gamma-ray spectrum of high dose rate source 192Ir . This work has been carried out to calibrate the high dose rat...

متن کاملEvaluation of dose distribution and dose gradient in brachytherapy cylindrical applicators using a dedicated Phantom for Iridium-192 and Cobalt-60 HDR sources
Introduction: A study was performed to evaluate radiation dose distribution and dose gradient around cylindrical applicators for high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy systems with 192Ir, 60Co brachytherapy source applied for rectal and vaginal cancers treatments. Materials and Methods: Two additional computed tomography (CT) based plans were generated using a ...
متن کاملDesign and fabrication of cylindrical ionization chamber for application in radiation protection
According to International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) recommendations, the calibration of ionization chambers used for radiotherapy dosimetry follows the substitution method which demands the use of a reference ionization chamber. This work introduces the Design and fabrication of cylindrical ionization chamber for dosimetry to be used by standard dosimetry laboratories. The result of the qual...
متن کاملMonte Carlo and experimental relative dose determination for an Iridium-192 source in water phantom
Background: Monte Carlo and experimental relative dose determination in a water phantom, due to a high dose rate (HDR) 192Ir source is presented for real energy spectrum and monochromatic at 356 keV. Materials and Methods: The dose distribution has been calculated around the 192Ir located in the center of 30 cm ×30 cm ×30 cm water phantom using MCNP4C code by Monte Carlo method. Relati...
