Characterization of the effect of MRI on Gafchromic film dosimetry
Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of Gafchromic film causes perturbation to absolute dosimetry measurements; the purpose of this work was to characterize the perturbation and develop a correction method for it. Three sets of Gafchromic EBT2 film were compared: radiation (control), radiation followed by MR imaging (RAD + B), and MR imaging followed by radiation (B + RAD). The T1-weighted and T2-we...
متن کاملGafchromic XR‐QA2 film as a complementary dosimeter for hand‐monitoring in CTF‐guided biopsies
Computed tomography fluoroscopy (CTF) is a useful imaging technique to guide biopsies, particularly lung biopsies, but it also has the potential for very high hand exposures, despite use of quick-check method and needle holders whenever feasible. Therefore, reliable monitoring is crucial to ensure the safe use of CTF. This is a challenge, because ring dosimeters monitor exposure only at the bas...
متن کاملDosimetric characterization of GafChromic EBT film
The suitability of radiochromic EBT film was studied for high-precision clinical quality assurance (QA) by identifying the dose response for a wide range of irradiation parameters typically modified in highly-conformal treatment techniques. In addition, uncertainties associated with varying irradiation conditions were determined. EBT can be used for dose assessment of absorbed dose levels as we...
متن کاملCorresponding dose response of radiographic film with layered gafchromic film.
This note investigates the dose response of layered HS Gafchromic film compared to Kodak EDR-2 radiographic film. Using five layers of HS type Gafchromic film a dose response greater than EDR-2 film is achieved at the peak wavelength (0.55 OD/Gy versus 0.3 OD/Gy for EDR-2 film). Even over a broader waveband of 30 nm, which is similar to that found in ultra bright LED scanners, the response was ...
متن کاملVerification of Indicated Skin Entrance Air Kerma for Cardiac X-ray-guided Intervention Using Gafchromic Film.
The aim of this work was to verify the indicated maximum entrance surface air kerma (ESAK) using a GE Innova IGS 520 imaging system during cardiac interventional procedures. Gafchromic XR RV3 films were used for the patient measurements to monitor the maximum ESAK. The films were scanned and calibrated to measure maximum ESAK. Thermoluminescent dosemeters were used to measure the backscatter fa...
