High sensitivity radiochromic film dose comparisons.
This short note investigates the dose characteristics of a relatively new high sensitivity radiochromic film (Gafchromic HS) and compares dose and energy response to various Gafchromic film types and radiographic (EDR-2) film. The original MD-55-1 and two improved sensitivity films, MD-55-2 and HS film, were investigated for energy and dose response. Results show that the energy response of the...
متن کاملPolarization effects on a high-sensitivity radiochromic film.
A new high-sensitivity radiochromic film has been tested for its polarization properties. Gafchromic HS film has been shown to produce a relatively small (less than 3%) variation in the optical density measured at 660 nm wavelength when the light source is fully linear polarized and the film is rotated through a 360 angle. Similar variations are seen when the detector is linearly polarized. If ...
متن کاملEnhancement of MD-55-2 radiochromic film sensitivity using a multilayer film technique for applications in the low dose range
ABSTRACTBackgrounds: MD-55-2 is one of the Radiochromic film models with the sensitivity suitable for dose measurements ranging from 5 to 100 Gy. However, this lower limit makes the film impractical for its applications in many areas such as brachytherapy source dosimetry.Materials and methods: In this project, the useful range of the film has been extended by using a multilayer film techniqu...
متن کاملdose response of irradiated xrct radiochromic film
– gafchromic xrct radiochromic film is a self developing high sensitivity radiochromic filmproduct which can be used for assessment of delivered radiation doses which could match applications suchas computed tomography (ct) dosimetry. the dose response of gafchromic xrct radiochromic film hasbeen measured with reflectance spectrophotometry and desktop scanners. the film automatically changescol...
متن کاملMeasurement of gold nanofilm dose enhancement using unlaminated radiochromic film.
PURPOSE Bombarding high-Z material with x-ray radiation releases Auger electrons and Coster-Kronig electrons, along with deeper penetrating fluorescent x-rays and photoelectrons. The Auger and Coster-Kronig electron penetration distance is on the order of nanometers to micrometers in water or tissue, creating a large dose enhancement accompanied by a RBE greater than 1 at the cellular level. Th...
