The feasibility of using portal dosimetry (PD) to verify 6 MV flattening filter-free (FFF) IMRT treatments was investigated. An Elekta Synergy linear accelerator with an Agility collimator capable of delivering FFF beams and a standard iViewGT amorphous silicon (aSi) EPID panel (RID 1640 AL5P) at a fixed SSD of 160 cm were used. Dose rates for FFF beams are up to four times higher than for conv...
Introduction: The utilization of high-energy photons in the medical linear accelerator can lead to photoneutron production. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of the physical components of the head, including flattening filter (FF) andmultileaf collimator (MLC), as well as the dependence of therapeutic field size on the photoneutron spectrum, dose, and flux. <str...
Radiotherapy using linear accelerators is known as an effective modality for cancer treatment. The photons energy of treatment beams significantly affect the dose distribution. Therefore, it is important to accurately evaluate the photon energy spectra. In this study, MCNPX Monte Carlo code (version 2.6.0) was used to simulate an 18 MV photon beam of a Varian 2100C/D linear accelerator. By matc...
Flattening filter-free radiation beams have higher dose rates that significantly increase the ion recombination rate in an ion chamber's volume and lower the signal read by the chamber-electrometer pair. The ion collection efficiency correction (P(ion)) accounts for the loss of signal and subsequently changes dosimetric quantities when applied. We seek to characterize the changes to the percent...
Benchmarking Flattening Filter-Free Photons for IMRT/VMAT using TG119 By Sarah Ashmeg Graduate Program in Medical Physics Duke University Date: _______________________ Approved: ___________________________ Jennifer O’Daniel, Co-Supervisor ___________________________ Fang-Fang Yin, Co-Supervisor ___________________________ Timothy Turkington An abstract of a thesis submitted in partial fulfillme...
As flattening filter-free (FFF) photon beams become readily available for treat-ment delivery in techniques such as SBRT, thorough investigation of skin dose from FFF photon beams is necessary under clinically relevant conditions. Using a parallel-plate PTW Markus chamber placed in a custom water-equivalent phantom, surface-dose measurements were taken at 2 × 2, 3 × 3, 4 × 4, 6 × 6, 8 × 8, 10 ×...
