Multi-parametric Improvements in the CCD Camera-based EPID for Portal Dosimetry

open access: yesJournal of Medical Signals and Sensors, 2017
Dosimetric verification of radiation treatment has recently been extended by the introduction of electronic portal imaging devices (EPIDs). Detailed dose response specifications of EPID should be addressed prior to any dosimetric application. The present

MO-FG-202-07: Real-Time EPID-Based Detection Metric For VMAT Delivery Errors.

open access: yes, 2016
PURPOSE To create and test an accurate EPID-frame-based VMAT QA metric to detect gross dose errors in real-time and to provide information about the source of error. METHODS A Swiss cheese model was created for an EPID-based real-time QA process.

ENFERMEDAD PULMONAR INTERSTICIAL DIFUSA (EPID)

open access: yesRevista Cuarzo, 2016
Si bien es cierto que la radiografía simple del tórax permite sospechar la presencia de enfermedad pulmonar instersticial, la tomografía axial computarizada (TACAR) es más sensible y específica en la valoración de pacientes con esta enfermedad. En este artículo se trata sobre los patrones básicos que permiten identificar los diversos grupos de EPID ...

EPIDの画質向上を目的とした散乱光子とエネルギー特性に関する研究 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
首都大学東京修士(放射線学)現在、放射線治療での照射技術として画像誘導放射線治療が広く用いられている。画像誘導放射線治療を行うにあたっては、位置照合装置が放射線治療装置と同室に設置されている必要あり、位置照合装置としてEPIDがある。EPIDで取得した位置照合画像は、人体からの散乱線により画質低下が起こり、正確に位置照合を行えない可能性がある。よって本研究では、計算時間の短縮のため、モンテカルロシミュレーションを用いずに、一回散乱光子のみの除去を行うことでEPID画像の画質改善を試みることを目的として ...
