Abstract

This study investigated if field output correction factors (FOCFs) of Varian stereotactic cones for Edge detectorTM had dependence on cone size, measurement setup, reference field size and/or photon energy. Field output factors (FOFs) of stereotactic cones were measured at three depths (1.5 cm, 5 cm and 10 cm) in two different setups (source-to-surface distance (SSD) and source-to-axis distance (SAD)) with two photon energies (6 MV and 6 MV flattening filter free) using the Edge detector and Exradin W2 scintillator. Two reference fields (10 × 10 cm and 4 × 4 cm) were chosen. FOCFs for the Edge detector were determined by calculating FOF/FOF and compared among cones and between depths, setups, reference fields and energies. It is concluded that FOCFs for the Edge detector have dependence on cone size, SSD/SAD setup and energy for small cones, but do not have dependence on depth and reference field size.

摘要

本研究调查了瓦里安立体定向准直器用于Edge detectorTM的射野输出校正因子(FOCF)是否依赖于准直器尺寸、测量设置、参考射野大小和/或光子能量。使用Edge探测器和Exradin W2闪烁体,在两种不同设置(源皮距(SSD)和源轴距(SAD))下,于三个深度(1.5 cm、5 cm和10 cm),对两种光子能量(6 MV和6 MV无均整器)测量立体定向准直器的射野输出因子(FOF)。选择了两个参考射野(10×10 cm和4×4 cm)。通过计算FOF/FOF来确定Edge探测器的FOCF,并在不同准直器之间以及深度、设置、参考射野和能量之间进行比较。得出结论:Edge探测器的FOCF对于小准直器依赖于准直器尺寸、SSD/SAD设置和能量,但不依赖于深度和参考射野大小。
