Unlaminated Gafchromic Ebt3 Film for Ultraviolet Radiation Monitoring.
Measurement of ultraviolet (UV) radiation is important for human health, especially with the expanded usage of short wavelength UV for sterilization purposes. This work examines unlaminated Gafchromic EBT3 film for UV radiation monitoring. The authors exposed the film to select wavelengths in the UV spectrum, ranging from 207 to 328 nm, and measured the change in optical density. The response o...
متن کاملPrecise film dosimetry for stereotactic radiosurgery and stereotactic body radiotherapy quality assurance using Gafchromic™ EBT3 films
PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to evaluate the dosimetric uncertainty associated with Gafchromic™ (EBT3) films and establish a practical and efficient film dosimetry protocol for Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) and Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT). METHOD AND MATERIALS EBT3 films were irradiated at each of seven different dose levels between 1 and 15 Gy with open fields and standar...
متن کاملUltraviolet exposure of Gafchromic XR‐RV3 and XR‐SP2 films
Gafchromic film has been used for X-ray dose measurement in diagnostic examinations. Their use has been initiated for three-dimensional X-ray dose measurement by using the high-resolution characteristics of Gafchromic films in computed tomography. However, it is necessary to solve the problem of nonuniform thickness in the active layers of Gafchromic films. A double exposure technique using X-r...
متن کاملComparing three UV wavelengths for pre‐exposing Gafchromic EBT2 and EBT3 films
Gafchromic films are used for X-ray dose measurements during diagnostic examinations and have begun to be used for three-dimensional X-ray dose measurements using the high-resolution characteristics of Gafchromic films for computed tomography. However, the problem of unevenness in Gafchromic film active layers needs to be resolved. Double exposures using X-rays are performed during therapeutic ...
متن کاملEvaluation of Gafchromic® EBT3 films characteristics in therapy photon, electron and proton beams.
PURPOSE To evaluate the uncertainties and characteristics of radiochromic film-based dosimetry system using the EBT3 model Gafchromic(®) film in therapy photon, electron and proton beams. MATERIAL AND METHODS EBT3 films were read using an EPSON Expression 10000XL/PRO scanner. They were irradiated in five beams, an Elekta SL25 6 MV and 18 MV photon beam, an IBA 100 MeV 5 × 5 cm(2) proton beam ...
