Reference dosimetry using radiochromic film
The objectives of this study are to identify and quantify factors that influence radiochromic film dose response and to determine whether such films are suitable for reference dosimetry. The influence of several parameters that may introduce systematic dose errors when performing reference dose measurements were investigated. The effect of the film storage temperature was determined by comparin...
متن کامل3-D reconstruction of a laser accelerated proton beam using micro-structured target foils and radiochromic film detectors∗
The generation of high-current multi-MeV protons by irradiating thin foils with short-pulse, ultrahigh intensity lasers (τ < ps, Iλ >10 8 W/cm μm) has gained great attention in the field of laser-ion acceleration due to remarkable properties of the accelerated beam and its suitability for a new type of ion source. The acceleration process takes place on the nonirradiated rear side of the foil. ...
متن کاملComparison of Electron-Beam Dose Distributions in a Heterogeneous Phantom Obtained Using Radiochromic Film Dosimetry and Monte Carlo Simulation
Introduction: Nowadays new radiochromic films have an essential role in radiotherapy dosimetry. Properties such as high sensitivity, good reproducibility, high spatial resolution, easy readout and portability have made them attractive for dosimetry, especially in high-dose-gradient regions. Material and Methods: In this study, electron-beam dose distributions in homogenous and heterogeneous pha...
متن کاملEvaluation of the RtDosePlan Treatment Planning System using Radiochromic Film and Monte Carlo Simulation
Introduction: GafChromic EBT films are one of the self-developing and modern films commercially available for dosimetric verification of treatment planning systems (TPSs). Their high spatial resolution, low energy dependence and near-tissue equivalence make them suitable for verification of dose distributions in radiation therapy. This study was designed to evaluate the dosimetric parameters of...
متن کاملRounded end multi-leaf penumbral measurements with radiochromic film.
Multi-leaf penumbral doses have been investigated for 6 MV x-rays and a Varian millennium multi-leaf collimator (MLC) using Gafchromic MD-55-2, radiochromic film and X-omat V radiographic film. An advantage of Gafchromic film for multi-leaf penumbral dose measurement is the relatively low energy dependence of the film. A comparison of penumbral dose measurements has also ascertained the effects...
