Evaluation of a commercial flatbed document scanner and radiographic film scanner for radiochromic EBT film dosimetry
The purpose of this study was to quantify the performance and assess the utility of two different types of scanners for radiochromic EBT film dosimetry: a commercial flatbed document scanner and a widely used radiographic film scanner. We evaluated the Epson Perfection V700 Photo flatbed scanner and the Vidar VXR Dosimetry Pro Advantage scanner as measurement devices for radiochromic EBT film. ...
متن کاملMeasurement of energy dependence for XRCT radiochromic film.
Gafchromic XRCT, radiochromic film is assessed over a broad energy range, from kilovoltage to megavoltage x rays for variations in reflected optical density to dose response. A large energy dependence was found with reflected optical density output for the same delivered dose varying from 7.8±0.35 at 25.5keV (50kVp) peaking at 12.1±0.5 at 54keV (125kVp) to 0.975±0.03 at 2300keV (10MV) when norm...
متن کاملComparison of Epson scanner quality for radiochromic film evaluation
Epson Desktop scanners have been quoted as devices which match the characteristics required for the evaluation of radiation dose exposure by radiochromic films. Specifically, models such as the 10000XL have been used successfully for image analysis and are recommended by ISP for dosimetry purposes. This note investigates and compares the scanner characteristics of three Epson desktop scanner mo...
متن کاملApplication of a color scanner for 60Co high dose rate brachytherapy dosimetry with EBT radiochromic film
UNLABELLED BACKGROUND.: The aim of this study is to evaluate the performance of a color scanner as a radiochromic film reader in two dimensional dosimetry around a high dose rate brachytherapy source. MATERIALS AND METHODS A Microtek ScanMaker 1000XL film scanner was utilized for the measurement of dose distribution around a high dose rate GZP6 (60)Co brachytherapy source with GafChromic® EBT...
متن کاملMeasurement of gold nanofilm dose enhancement using unlaminated radiochromic film.
PURPOSE Bombarding high-Z material with x-ray radiation releases Auger electrons and Coster-Kronig electrons, along with deeper penetrating fluorescent x-rays and photoelectrons. The Auger and Coster-Kronig electron penetration distance is on the order of nanometers to micrometers in water or tissue, creating a large dose enhancement accompanied by a RBE greater than 1 at the cellular level. Th...
