Routine individualised patient dosimetry using electronic portal imaging devices

Radiotherapy and Oncology, 2007
To analyse the results of routine EPID measurements for individualised patient dosimetry.Calibrated camera-based EPIDs were used to measure the central field dose, which was compared with a dose prediction at the EPID level. For transit dosimetry, dose data were calculated using patient transmission and scatter, and compared with measured values ...

Portal dosimetry for VMAT using integrated images obtained during treatment

Medical Physics, 2014
Purpose:Portal dosimetry provides an accurate and convenient means of verifying dose delivered to the patient. A simple method for carrying out portal dosimetry for volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) is described, together with phantom measurements demonstrating the validity of the approach.Methods:Portal images were predicted by projecting dose ...

A literature review of electronic portal imaging for radiotherapy dosimetry

Radiotherapy and Oncology, 2008
Electronic portal imaging devices (EPIDs) have been the preferred tools for verification of patient positioning for radiotherapy in recent decades. Since EPID images contain dose information, many groups have investigated their use for radiotherapy dose measurement.

Transmission dosimetry with a liquid-filled electronic portal imaging device

International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 1996
To assess the accuracy of transmission dose rate measurements for various phantom-detector geometries, performed with an electronic portal imaging device (EPID) and to compare these transmission dose rate values with exit dose rate data.Transmission dose rate values on the central beam axis and beam profiles were measured with an EPID consisting of a ...
