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 کاملPhantom Tests with X-rays
The medical practitioner wishes a lung radiograph to be capable of revealing details uhich. are hardly perceptible. Jf he does not see a certain suspected detail does this then mean that that detail is non-existent, or is it that the X-ray picture is unable to reveal it? For a study of the general problem of perceptibility of details in X-ray technique good use -can be made of specially constru...
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 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...
