EPID in vivo Dosimetry
Introduction: The most modern radiotherapy devices are equipped with an Electronic Portal Imaging Device (EPID) system which is located on opposite side of the machine’s head. EPID system is often used to setting up the position verification during or between radiotherapy sessions. Material and Methods: Various types of dosimeters have been used to setting up ...
متن کاملThe physical characteristics of a SLIC-EPID for transmitted dosimetry
ABSTRACT Background: for treatment verification in radiation therapy. Several physical characteristics of ScanningLiquid filled Ionization Chamber EPID (SLIC-EPID) including: extra build-up layer,reproducibility and uniformity, and noise level were investigated.Electronic Portal Imaging Devices (EPIDs) have found an outstanding positionMaterials and Methods: equilibrium, 1-30 mm white water mat...
متن کاملEvaluation of a fast method of EPID-based dosimetry for IMRT and Comparison with 3D EPID-based dosimetry system using conventional two- and three-dimensional detectors for VMAT
Introduction: Electronic portal imaging devices (EPIDs) could potentially be useful for intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and VMAT QA. The data density, high resolution, large active area, and efficiency of the MV EPID make it an attractive option. However, EPIDs were designed as imaging devices, not dosimeters, and as a result they do not inherently measure dose in ...
متن کاملBreast in vivo dosimetry by EPID
An electronic portal imaging device (EPID) is an effective detector for in vivo transit dosimetry. In fact, it supplies two-dimensional information, does not require special efforts to be used during patient treatment, and can supply data in real time. In the present paper, a new procedure has been proposed to improve the EPID in vivo dosimetry accuracy by taking into account the patient setup ...
متن کاملEPID in vivo dosimetry in RapidArc technique.
AIM The aim of the study was to estimate the dose at the reference point applying an aSi-EPID device in the course of patient treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS The method assumes direct proportionality between EPID signal and dose delivered to the patient reference point during the treatment session. The procedure consists of treatment plan calculation for the actual patient in the arc techniq...
