| Abstract:: |
| Objective To develop the method for testing the consistency of irradiation field produced by the active spot scanning proton and heavy ion accelerator. Methods Calibration of the EBT3 films were carried out with the calibrated ion beam to establish the dose calibration curve. According to the different proton and carbon ion energies (proton:94.29, 150.68, 212.62 MeV; carbon ion:175.99, 283.43, 412.54 MeV/u), EBT3 films were located in the solid water phantoms in each therapy room, respectively. Finally, the irradiated EBT3 films were scanned and the radiation field size's deviation and flatness were analyzed. Results In different conditions, radiation field size's deviations were all less than 2 mm and the flatness parameters were all controlled below the 5%. Conclusions EBT3 films can be used to test the active spot scanning proton and heavy ion accelerator's radiation field uniformity. |
