Measurement of Field Distortion in Free-Air Ionization Chambers
A two dimensional allaJog of a free-air ionization chamber for the measurement of fi eld distortion was obtained by painting conducting lines on resistance paper to represent cross sections of the electrodes. Guard wires were simulated by driving record p layer needles into the paper . The volume of the chamber from which charge was collected was related to the resistance between two of the lin...
متن کاملTwo New Parallel-plate Ionization Chambers for Electron Beam Dosimetry
-Two parallel-plate ionization chambers were projected, constructed and evauated for use in high energy electron beams. They were constructed using the two plastic materials recommended for clinical dosimetry protocols, i.e. acrylic and polystyrene. Both chambers have cylindrical shape with entrance windows in aluminized Mylar and they are open to the air. The acrylic chamber has a 2 mm air gap...
متن کاملStandard calibration of ionization chambers used in radiation therapy dosimetry and evaluation of uncertainties
Background: Absolute dosimetry of external beam radiotherapy is carried out by the use of ionization chambers. These chambers must be calibrated at a standard dosimetry laboratory before any use in clinical dosimetry. The secondary standard dosimetry laboratory of Iran (SSDL) has the duty of calibrating the ionization chambers used in radiotherapy centers in Iran. Materials and Methods...
متن کاملCurrent saturation in free-air ionization chambers with chopped synchrotron radiation
Saturation curves for free-air ionization chambers with electrode gap widths of 4.2, 8.4 and 18 mm were obtained for 10 and 15 keV undulator synchrotron radiation thinned with a 230 Hz rotating-disk chopper. Ion recombination in free-air ionization chambers was found to be inversely proportional to the applied electric field, and an expression that satisfactorily reproduced the ion-recombinatio...
متن کاملStability Study of Ionization Chambers in Standard Mammography Radiation Beams
The ionization chambers are widely utilized in diagnostic radiology quality control and dosimetry. They are simple to use, and can be found commercially in various types depending on their applications. They are the recommended devices for the determination of the beam qualities in mammographic range. To assure the reliability of the measurements, the stability of the response of the ionization...
