Calculation the phantom scatter factor for the linear accelerators device
Introduction: In the last few decades, a lot of monte carlo codes have been introduced for medical applications. this is important because through simulation, we are fully independent of the spectral scattering factor that we are not able measure in real terms. The effect of the radiation energy, the dimension of the radiation field, the sensitive volume of the ion chamber on t...
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 کامل[Estimation of the phantom scatter factor (Sp) of rectangular fields].
This study proposes a method to accurately estimate the phantom scatter factor (Sp) of arbitrary rectangular fields. We measured output doses in water and air; these measured values were based on square fields and a limited number of symmetric rectangular fields using 4 MV and 10 MV X-rays of a Varian Clinac-iX. We calculated Sp from these measured values. Then, using these Sp values, we estima...
متن کاملdetermination of maximal singularity free zones in the workspace of parallel manipulator
due to the limiting workspace of parallel manipulator and regarding to finding the trajectory planning of singularity free at workspace is difficult, so finding a best solution that can develop a technique to determine the singularity-free zones in the workspace of parallel manipulators is highly important. in this thesis a simple and new technique are presented to determine the maximal singula...
15 صفحه اولDetermination of optimum filter in myocardial SPECT: A phantom study
Background: In myocardial perfusion SPECT imaging, images are degraded by photon attenuation, the distance-dependent collimator, detector response and photons scatter. Filters greatly affect quality of nuclear medicine images Materials and Methods: A phantom simulating heart left ventricle was built. About 1mCi of 99mTc was injected into the phantom. Images were taken from this phantom. Some fi...
