PD-0442: A new approach in the design of electronic portal imaging devices for portal dosimetry in radiotherapy

A literature review of electronic portal imaging for radiotherapy dosimetry.

Electronic portal imaging devices (EPIDs) have been the preferred tools for verification of patient positioning for radiotherapy in recent decades. Since EPID images contain dose information, many groups have investigated their use for radiotherapy dose measurement. With the introduction of the amorphous-silicon EPIDs, the interest in EPID dosimetry has been accelerated because of the favourabl...

The changing role of electronic portal imaging devices in radiotherapy

Evaluation of the Portal Imaging System Performance for an Elekta Precise Linac in Radiotherapy

Introduction: Electronic portal imaging devices (EPIDs) provide two- and three-dimensional planar and volumetric cone beam images to improve the accuracy of radiation treatment delivery. Periodic quality assurance (QA) of EPIDs is essential for dosimetric verification in radiotherapy. In this study, a QA program was implemented to evaluate the function of the EPID to be confident in applying co...
