Gafchromic EBT3 film dosimetry in electron beams — energy dependence and improved film read‐out
For megavoltage photon radiation, the fundamental dosimetry characteristics of Gafchromic EBT3 film were determined in 60Co gamma ray beam with addition of experimental and Monte Carlo (MC)-simulated energy dependence of the film for 6 MV photon beam and 6 MeV, 9 MeV, 12 MeV, and 16 MeV electron beams in water phantom. For the film read-out, two phase correction of scanner sensitivity was appli...
متن کاملSU-E-T-142: Evaluation of the Energy Dependence of Gafchromic EBT3 Film for Electron Beams.
PURPOSE To evaluate the energy dependence of Gafchromic EBT3 film for establishing a quality assurance method of bolus electron conformal radiotherapy. METHODS We irradiated electron beam to EBT3 films, which were set in the water tank. The linear accelerator used was Varian Clinac 21EX. The energy of electron beams were 9 and 12 MeV. The irradiated field size was 10×10 cm2 and the source to ...
متن کاملWeak energy dependence of EBT gafchromic film dose response in the 50 kVp-10 MVp X-ray range.
The energy dependence of the dose response of EBT Gafchromic film is assessed over a broad energy range, from superficial to megavoltage X-rays. The film is auto-developing and sensitive, it provides accurate dose assessment of low doses (about 1-2 Gy) used in radiotherapy. The energy dependence of the response of EBT film was found to be very weak: the variations do not exceed 10% over the ran...
متن کاملCalibration of Gafchromic EBT3 for Dose Measurements in Low-Energy Proton Beam
The use of radiochromic film (RCF) dosimetry is widely consolidated for applications in photon, electron and proton beams. It offers several advantages, in particular, two-dimensional measurements of dose distributions with high spatial resolution, no post irradiation processing required and no daylight sensitivity. In addition, it shows small LET and energy dependence. GAFCHROMIC® EBT3 films, ...
متن کاملEvaluation of lens dose from anterior electron beams: comparison of Pinnacle and Gafchromic EBT3 film
Lens dose is a concern during the treatment of facial lesions with anterior electron beams. Lead shielding is routinely employed to reduce lens dose and minimize late complications. The purpose of this work is twofold: 1) to measure dose pro-files under large-area lead shielding at the lens depth for clinical electron energies via film dosimetry; and 2) to assess the accuracy of the Pinnacle tr...
