Abstract:
ABSTRACT Aim: Total body irradiation (TBI) and total skin electron therapy (TSET) are special radiotherapy techniques that differ from routine radiotherapy therapy. They are intended to deliver a uniform dose to the entire body or skin and involve complex treatment procedures. It is therefore mandatory to perform an in-vivo dosimetry check to ensure dose accuracy and dose homogeneity during treatment. This study aims to investigate the dosimetric characteristics of GafchromicTM EBT3 film aimed at the application of TBI and TSET dosimetry. Materials and Methods: GafchromicTM EBT3 film by Ashlan

Abstract:
Abstract Background Fast and easily repeatable methods for commissioning procedures for brachytherapy (BT) treatment planning systems (TPS) are needed. Radiochromic film dosimetry with gamma analysis is widely used in external beam quality assurance (QA) procedures and planar film dosimetry is also increasingly used for verification of the dose distribution in BT applications. Using the gamma analysis method for comparing calculated and measured dose data could be used for commissioning procedures of the newly developed TG-186 and MBDCA calculation algorithms.

Abstract:
Introduction: Dosimetry is of crucial importance in radiation processing of food. Among others, plastic film has been widely used for dosimetry in radiation therapy since its density is quite similar to the equivalent biological materials. In this study, the depth dose distribution was estimated by using gafchromic film for the purpose of dosimetry in food irradiation.
 Experimental: The HD-V2 gafchromic dosimetry film was employed to measure the interested dose instead of ion chamber. A stack of 19 PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate) sheets interleaved with 20 pieces of gafchromic film was ma

Abstract Circular discs of diameter 5 mm were made from three indigenously developed optically stimulated luminescent (OSL) phosphors for medical dosimetry. Dosimetric characteristics of these discs were evaluated for their use in machine and patient-specific dosimetry in radiotherapy. Uncertainty in dosimetric measurements using these discs was also estimated, and combined standard uncertainty in measurement of absorbed dose was found to be 3.34%. Characterisation studies indicate that OSL discs are suitable for dosimetric application in radiotherapy. These discs were also used for patient-sp
