The calibration of the 'Fingerhut' ionization chamber
The use of the "thimble" ionization chamber (Fingerhutkammer) has in the past been the only method for comparing the primary X-ray standards of different laboratories, hence the precise calibration of two thimble chambers is discussed in this paper. Five principal factors determine the accuracy of such a calibration, and it is shown that the errors are all, in general, in the same direction. It...
متن کاملEvaluation of dosimetry a performance parameter for a homemade farmer-type ionization chamber according to IEC60731
Introduction: Due to its simplicity, fast response and high reliability, ion chamber detectors are one of the most suitable dosimetry instruments for X and gamma rays. The dosimeter of photon beams, which used in radiotherapy centers, requires high accuracy and should pass requirements of IEC 60731 standards. About 80 percent of the IEC 60731 standard tests such as stabil...
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 کاملCommissioning of a PTW 34070 large‐area plane‐parallel ionization chamber for small field megavoltage photon dosimetry
PURPOSE This study investigates a large-area plane-parallel ionization chamber (LAC) for measurements of dose-area product in water (DAPw ) in megavoltage (MV) photon fields. METHODS Uniformity of electrode separation of the LAC (PTW34070 Bragg Peak Chamber, sensitive volume diameter: 8.16 cm) was measured using high-resolution microCT. Signal dependence on angle α of beam incidence for squar...
متن کاملPositioning of a plane-parallel ionization chamber in clinical electron beams and the impact on perturbation factors.
Current dosimetry protocols recommend the use of plane-parallel ionization chambers for the dosimetry of clinical electron beams. The necessary perturbation corrections p(wall) and p(cav) are assumed to be unity, independent of the depth of measurement and the energy of the primary electrons. To verify these assumptions detailed Monte Carlo studies of a Roos chamber in clinical electron beams w...
