Dosimetric calibration of GafChromic HD-V2, MD-V3, and EBT3 films for dose ranges up to 100 kGy

A dosimetric calibration of three types radiochromic films (GafChromicTM HD-V2, MD-V3, and EBT3) was carried out for absorbed doses (D) ranging up to 100 kGy using a 130 TBq Co60 γ-ray source. The optical densities (ODs) the irradiated were acquired with transmission-mode flatbed film scanner EPSON GT-X980. data cross-checked 20-MeV proton beam from azimuthally varying field cyclotron at Research Center Nuclear Physics in Osaka University. These experimental results not only present measurable dose ranges depending on readout wavelength, but also show consistency our hypothesis that OD response curve [log(OD)–log(D) curve] is determined by volumetric average absorption does strongly depend type radiation excitation.
