چکیده
The importance of collimator R&D with test beam facilities is demonstrated with the example of ILC collimator studies at SLAC End Station A. Related LHC collimator aspects and longer term plans are addressed. Presented at IDTB07, ILC Detector Test Beam workshop, Fermilab, USA, 2007.

Background:Â Before treatment planning and dose delivery, quality assurance of multi-leaf collimator (MLC) has an important role in intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) due to the creation of multiple segments from optimization process.Objective: The purpose of this study is to assess the quality control of MLC leaves using EBT3 Gafchromic films.Material and Methods: Leaf Position accur...
متن کاملDesign and clinical utility of a fan beam collimator for SPECT imaging of the head.
A long bore fan beam collimator for imaging the head was designed and constructed for a SPECT system with a rotating scintillation camera. In order to avoid the patient's shoulder during rotation of the camera with a thick camera housing, the long bore design is necessary to allow the collimator to get close to the patient's head for improved spatial resolution. Operating at the minimum radius ...

متن کامل[Approximation of collimator scatter factor Sc by a saturation model].
To more easily estimate accurate values of collimator scatter facor, S(c), we suggest a two-component saturation model that accounts for scatter from the primary collimator and flattening filter and from the collimator jaws. This model, which assumes an exponential distribution of scatter intensity, was tested by in-air measurements using a mini-phantom for 4 MV and 10 MV X-rays of a Clinac 210...
متن کاملCollimator angulation error and its effect on SPECT.
Angulation errors in collimator septa degrade tomographic resolution in SPECT due to mispositioning of events in the projection data. These errors should be small compared to other contributions to SPECT system resolution, such as intrinsic camera and collimator resolution, gantry alignment, and algorithmic smoothing. We describe a radioisotope technique to measure septal angulation errors over...
