Pixel response‐based EPID dosimetry for patient specific QA
Increasing use of high dose rate, flattening filter free (FFF), and/or small-sized field beams presents a significant challenge to the medical physics community. In this work, we develop a strategy of using a high spatial resolution and high frame rate amorphous silicon flat panel electronic portal imaging device (EPID) for dosimetric measurements of these challenging cases, as well as for conv...
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 کاملInvestigation of error detection capabilities of phantom, EPID and MLC log file based IMRT QA methods
A patient specific quality assurance (QA) should detect errors that originate anywhere in the treatment planning process. However, the increasing complexity of treatment plans has increased the need for improvements in the accuracy of the patient specific pretreatment verification process. This has led to the utilization of higher resolution QA methods such as the electronic portal imaging devi...
متن کاملEPID 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 ...
