Energy dependence of the GAFCHROMIC LD‐V1 in the diagnostic radiographic modalities
Abstract The GAFCHROMIC LD‐V1 radiochromic film is widely used in dosimetry because it can provide high‐resolution two‐dimensional dose distributions without processing. This study aimed to evaluate the response characteristics at different effective energies, from the low‐energy range of mammography to the high‐energy range of computed tomography. Net

Analysis of the institutional free market in accredited medical physics graduate programs
Abstract Medical Physics education is largely delivered through accredited programs where admission numbers and funding for students are controlled by the individual institutions providing the educational programs. Public data from these accredited graduate programs, along with funding data, can be used to analyze institutionally driven trends in the ...

Abstract Background Gel dosimeters enable three‐dimensional dose measurement in x‐ray and charged‐particle therapies. A normoxic N‐vinylpyrrolidone‐based polymer gel (VIPET) dosimeter is expected to provide high‐precision proton dose measurements. However, reports on the fundamental performance of VIPET gel dosimeters in proton beam measurement are ...
