AAPM protocol for 40-300 kV x-ray beam dosimetry in radiotherapy and radiobiology.
The American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) presents a new protocol, developed by the Radiation Therapy Committee Task Group 61, for reference dosimetry of low- and medium-energy x rays for radiotherapy and radiobiology (40 kV < or = tube potential < or = 300 kV). It is based on ionization chambers calibrated in air in terms of air kerma. If the point of interest is at or close to...
متن کاملConsider potential of gold nanoparticles with proton therapy compared with KV and MEV X-ray therapy.
Introduction: Many study shown the effectiveness dose enhancement with gold nanoparticles (GNPs), especially with low-energy x-rays. Recently, proton beam radiation therapy (PBRT) has attention as a treatment for tumors. The advantage in PBRT, which releases high dose at the controllable Bragg peak position that localized for Au target and the released dose increased in depth....
متن کاملA novel approach for superficial intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) using a 50 kV X‐ray source: a technical and case report
The use of IORT as a treatment modality for patients with close or positive margins has increased over the past decade. For situations where a flat area (up to 6 cm in diameter) has to be treated intraoperatively, new applicators for superficial treatment with a miniature X-ray source (INTRABEAM system) were developed. Here we report our evaluation of the dosimetric characteristics of these new...
متن کاملCorrelated X-ray and optical variability in KV UMa
We present coordinated X-ray and optical observations of the X-ray transient KV UMa (= XTE J1118+480) at high time resolution. The optical variation associated with spikes in the X-rays consist of a dip preceding the spike by 0-5 s, and a peak following it. The cross-correlation function between X-rays and optical has the same shape. It rises sharply, within 30ms of the peak of the X-rays. The ...
متن کاملModeling kV X-ray-Induced Coloration in Radiochromic Films
Commercially available radiochromic films are primarily designed for clinical X-ray dosimetry. These films change color upon exposures to radiation as a result of solid-state polymerization (SSP). Built on a previous model developed for SSP upon exposures to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, a new model was developed in the present work for X-ray-induced coloration in Gafchromic EBT3 films. Monte Car...
