Gafchromic EBT2 Film Dosimetry

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols

9×5cm pieces of Gafchromic EBT2 film (Advanced Materials Group, Wayne, NJ) were placed in custom designed holders and positioned in a water tank at WEDs corresponding with diode cross‐profile data, as shown in Table 1. Using the same energies and treatment nozzle configurations as analogous diode data (see Table 1 and above), films were irradiated for 165 s (corresponding to a dose range of approximately 3.5 to 7.3 Gy depending on energy, modulation, and water‐equivalent depth). Films were scanned in 48 bit RGB format at 72 dpi using an Epson 10000XL flatbed scanner. Dose maps where created with Film QA Pro software (Ashland Inc., Wayne, NJ) using a triple‐channel dosimetry method based on a rational function‐fit to previously exposed calibration films.20, 21 Cross‐sectional profiles of the dose maps were obtained using Film QA Pro and the data was normalized based on the maximum dose value. Film cross‐profiles were center‐aligned with diode cross‐profiles for analysis.

Sensitometric Curve for Radiation Dosimetry

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Hurter and Driffield (H&D) introduced the sensitometric curve for films in 1890 and it is referred as film characteristic curve or the H&D curve.[27 ] The H&D curve is the response curve of a film where the log (exposure) is plotted on the X-axis and the net OD on the Y-axis [Figure 2a]. However, for radiation dosimetry, we plot net OD versus dose and called it the sensitometric curve [Figure 2b]. The net OD can be represented as a function of several parameters,[13 (link)] namely
OD = f (D, Dr, E, γ, d, S)
where “D” is the radiation dose, “Dr” is the dose rate, “E” is the radiation energy, “γ” is the type of the primary radiation, “d” is the depth of measurement, and “S” is the field size.
Although Gafchromic EBT3 films are less energy dependent, at high absorbed dose value, we cannot ignore the effect of it in dosimetry. Figure 3 shows the energy dependence of the H&D curve for 6 and 15 MV photons scanned using Epson 10000XL flatbed scanner. Both the curves merge at low doses for less than about 200 cGy, and they deviate from each other at high doses.
For both of these energies, H&D curves have a linear response in the dose range of 0–200 cGy, as shown in Figure 3. In the method of dosimetry described in the present work, the use of the linear region of H&D curve is required for both the film types.

Evaluation of 3D Bolus Dosimetry Using EBT3 Film

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To evaluate the calculation algorithm AAA for the 3D bolus, we irradiated a field of 10 cm × 10 cm with 300 MU and the gantry at 90º to get the percent depth dose (PDD) profile under the three following conditions in the Rando phantom: without a bolus, with a commercial bolus, and with the 3D boluses. Gafchromic EBT3 films (ISP Corporation, Wayne, NJ, USA) were cut and inserted along the horizontal direction in the phantom. After irradiation, the films were scanned in the RGB mode with an Epson 10000XL flatbed scanner according to the manufacturer recommendations for the film. The scanned images were analyzed with the use of the Omnipro I’mRT Version 1.7 (IBA Dosimetry, Schwarzenbruck, Germany) package. The calibration curves of the EBT3 film were determined in the red channel. A more detailed description of the film dosimetry with the use of the Gafchromic EBT films was provided in a previous study [10 (link)]. For the analysis, film dose measurements were smoothed applying a Gaussian filter 3 × 3 and the percentage of points that meet the gamma value (5%, 3 mm) < 1 was obtained. The PDD profiles corresponding to the measured dose in the EBT film and the calculated dose in treatment planning system were compared.

Absolute Dosimetry of Converging Beam Focal Spot

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
With an inherent spatial resolution <25 μm, dose rate dependence < 5%, and an energy dependence < 5%, the near-tissue-equivalent Gafchromic EBT3 film (lot No. 07281401, Ashland Inc., Wayne, NJ, USA) was chosen for absolute dosimetry of the converging beam focal spot. An Epson 10000XL flatbed scanner was employed in transmission mode to read the exposed film pieces. The scanner used 48-bit color with a spatial resolution of 72 dpi and was chosen because the scanner is the limiting factor in contributing to film resolution.
A Farmer-type ion chamber (NEL 2515/3, serial No. 2402) was used as the ADCL-calibrated dosimeter. Ion chamber calibration coefficient Nk were obtained in terms of air kerma from the ADCL for 100, 125, and 250 kVp from which a chamber calibration coefficient for 180 kVp was interpolated (see Table 1).

All the samples were scanned by using Epson 10000XL flatbed scanner in reflective mode. The images were digitalized in 48 bits RGB format at a resolution of 72 dpi and saved in uncompressed TIFF format. The image processing was performed using an open source program written in MATLAB 7.4. The analysis was performed in the red channel component of the image.

Gamma Knife Irradiation Dosimetry with 3D-Printed Headrest

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A second set of irradiations was performed using the same experimental setup, with radiochromic EBT3 film (Radiation Products Design Inc., Albertville, MN) inserted into the phantom in place of the ionization chamber. A Gamma Knife treatment plan was generated in GammaPlan to deliver 2 Gy to the 50% isodose line to both a 4‐cm‐diameter PTV and a 2‐cm‐diameter PTV, shown in Fig. 3. The planned treatment was delivered to the head phantom, once with the phantom setup with the standard‐of‐care cushion, and once with the phantom in the 3D‐printed headrest.
The irradiated films were scanned using a 10000XL flatbed scanner (Epson, Long Beach, CA). MyQA software version 2.9.23 (IBA Dosimetry, Schwarzenbruck, Germany) was used to calculate the Gamma Index10 with the standard‐of‐care film as reference and the 3D‐printed film as comparison using 2% dose difference, 2 mm distance to agreement, global normalization, and 20% dose threshold as the gamma index criteria.

Ten LiF: Mg,Ti dosimeters (TLD-100) were placed in a RANDO phantom. The TLDs were calibrated at the maximum depth dose of 1.6 cm with 100 cm SSD and field size of 10 3 10 cm 2 . Irradiation was performed three times. After each irradiation, dose values were recorded using a Harshaw 3500 TLD reader. The measured and calculated dose values were then compared.
For the film calibration process, Gafchromic EBT3 films were cut into squares of 5 3 5 cm 2 . Films were placed at d max with SSD of 100 cm and 10 3 10 cm field size. The eight dose values of 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, and 650 cGy were applied to obtain the calibration curve. A non-irradiated film was reserved to verify the calibration. Films were scanned using an Epson 10000 XL flatbed scanner after waiting 24 h to ensure color stabilization. The measurements were analyzed using the PTW Verisoft 6.2 software program.
Delivery quality assurance were prepared for each plan using the Eclipse treatment planning system. Dosimetric verification was performed using an electronic portal-imaging device (EPID). The measured and calculated values were compared by the gamma analysis method using the portal dosimeter software available in the system. In our study, the results were evaluated with the parameters of 3% dose difference and 3 mm distance-to-agreement.
