Assessment of an Unshielded Electron Field Diode Dosimeter for Beam Scanning in Small- to Medium-Sized 6 MV Photon Fields
Introduction Radiotherapy planning systems require many percentage depth dose (PDD) and profile measurements and there are various dosimeters that can be used to obtain these scans. As dose perturbation is particularly troublesome in smaller photon fields, using a low-perturbation, unshielded electron field diode (EFD) in these fields is of interest. The aim of this work was to investigate the ...
متن کاملmonte carlo simulation of a 6 mv x-ray beam for open and wedge radiation fields, using gate code
the aim of this study is to provide a control software system, based on monte carlo simulation, and calculations of dosimetric parameters of standard and wedge radiation fi elds, using a monte carlo method. gate version 6.1 (opengate collaboration), was used to simulate a compact 6 mv linear accelerator system. in order to accelerate the calculations, the phase-space technique and cluster compu...
متن کاملMeasurement of stereotactic beam data of 9 MV X-rays using diode detector
Background: Radiosurgery is a focal brain irradiation technique that delivers, usually in a single session, high dose of ionizing radiation. The presence of lateral electronic disequilibrium and steep dose gradients in small fields demands special attention to the selection of a suitable detector with respect to its size, composition and response. Materials and Methods : Small circular fields w...
متن کاملFabrication of a Silicon PIN Diode for Radiation Detection
Some of the critical steps in process integration for fabricating silicon-based PIN-type radiation detector were addressed. Even though a guard ring is usually required in discrete devices due to carrier scattering and generation at the cut edges of the dies, the leakage characteristic of sensor arrays was found to be critically depend on the relation between the depletion width and the distanc...
