Energy and field size dependence of a silicon diode designed for small-field dosimetry

Purpose: To investigate the energy dependence/spectral sensitivity of silicon diodes designed for small-field dosimetry and obtain response factors (RFs) for arbitrary photon spectra using Monte Carlo (MC) simulations.   Methods: The EGSnrc user-code DOSRZnrc was used to calculate the dose deposition in water and in the active volume of a stereotactic diode f...

Monte carlo simulation of varian clinac iX 10 MV photon beam for small field dosimetry

Background: The lack of lateral electronic disequilibrium (LED) becomes a main problem in small field. This factor affects the dose in target volume cannot predict correctly. In addition, utilization of high-energy linear accelerator (10 MV) can emit some unwanted particles (electron contamination). Therefore, the aim of this study was to characterize head linear accelerator (linac) Varian Clin...

Validation of a prototype DiodeAir for small field dosimetry.

Standard commercial diode detectors over-respond within small radiation fields, an effect largely attributable to the relatively high mass-density of silicon. However, Monte Carlo studies can be used to optimise dosimeter designs and have demonstrated that 'mass-density compensation'-for example, introducing a low-density air-gap upstream of a diode's high-density silicon volume-can substantial...

SU-E-T-15: Small and Nonstandard Photon Field Dosimetry Characterization Using Monte Carlo Methods.

PURPOSE To quantify uncertainty reduction in small photon field dosimetry through characterization of ionization chambers and calibration conditions using detailed Monte Carlo methods benchmarked against NIST-traceable measurements. METHODS Phase space profiles were obtained using detailed EGSnrc Monte Carlo models for a Varian 6 MV photon linear accelerator, and a NIST-traceable cobalt-60 te...

Small photon field dosimetry using EBT2 Gafchromic film and Monte Carlo simulation

Background: Small photon fields are increasingly used in modern radiotherapy especially in intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) treatments. Accurate beam profile and central axis depth doses measurements of such beams are complicated due to the electron disequilibrium. Hence the EBT2 (external beam therapy) Gafchromic film was used for dosimetry of sm...
