Air Kerma Based Dosimetry versus Absorbed Dose to Water Based Dosimetry for High-energy Photon

Introduction: In the last 5 years the American Association of Physicists in Medicine Task Group 51 (AAPM TG-51) and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) published a new high-energy photon and electron dosimetry protocol. These protocols are based on the use of an ion chamber having an absorbed-dose to water calibration factor. These are different from the previous NCS report-2 and IAEA...

Skin in vivo Dosimetry in Radiotherapy

Introduction: Due to the prevalence of skin problems in patients after radiotherapy, skin dose measuring is importance. Content: Skin in vivo dosimetry means measuring the patient's (or phantom) skin dose during radiotherapy. According to the ICRP 59, the dose at the depth of 0.07 mm is known as a skin dose. The most radiosensitive epidermis cells are located...

In vivo dosimetry of intraoral stent using TLD during external photon beam radiotherapy of oral cavity

Introduction: Individual oral stent is a mouth-opening device that used in head and neck cancer radiotherapy with the intention of decreasing radiation dose to health tissues. The aim of this study was to check the dose delivered to both the hard palate and tongue when patient uses the stent during radiotherapy of tongue carcinoma. Methods and materials<stron...

Patient dosimetry for hybrid MRI-radiotherapy systems.

A novel geometry has been proposed for a hybrid magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-linac system in which a 6 MV linac is mounted on the open end of a biplanar, low field (0.2 T) MRI magnet on a single gantry that is free to rotate around the patient. This geometry creates a scenario in which the magnetic field vector remains fixed with respect to the incident photon beam, but moves with respect t...

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...
